LibraryPass is excited to be exhibiting at AASL 2023 (Tampa Bay, FL) for the first time! In addition to demos of Comics Plus and hosting a session on dealing with book challenges, we’re also bringing along a small library featuring some of our favorite publishers’ comics and manga that we’ll be giving away to one lucky school librarian at the end of the show!
Come visit us in Booth 936 on October 19-21, 2023, and browse the dozens of titles we’ll be giving away, thanks to our library-friendly publisher partners:
- ABDO
- Ablaze
- Andrews McMeel
- Astra/TOON Books
- Fanbase Press
- Fantagraphics
- Humanoids
- Kodansha
- Oni Press
- Papercutz
- Red Comet
- Silver Sprocket
- Tokyopop
- Zuiker Press
The collection will be available to browse throughout the show in our booth, and registered attendees can enter the drawing to win them all. We’ll select the winner on the final day of the show and ship the books straight to their school from the Convention Center. We’ll also have a few extras to give away individually on the last day.
