Book Fairs & Auctions: The Season is Upon Us
- by Bruce E. McKinney
For searches of upcoming auctions in the simple search box near the top of the page, on the new site the number and actual results for auctions and Books for Sale are provided. For the AED, the number of results found are shown. Members must sign in to view them. Even more importantly, searches in the AED and Books for Sale will always simultaneously search the auctions and list the number of items found. Clicking on the number opens the complete file.
So it's a busy month for the book business. In the traditional ways established over decades the flowers bloom while both new fields are put into cultivation. In a very real sense this is the book business at the crossroads. The signs are up, the doors are open, the material and the thinking is fresh.
