In order to better serve our Bookfair exhibitors, AWP has designed this Point System to determine table and booth assignments. This system relies most heavily on the date of purchase and sponsorship, but also factors in credit for those organizations that have participated in the Bookfair for multiple years and have supported the Conference in other ways.  All sponsors of the conference at or above the $5,000 level will be automatically given priority placement at the Bookfair.  Please note that booths are separated from tables and are given priority over tables when determining placement.

* If you exhibited in a shared space with another organization, you will not receive credit for this option, unless your organization was listed as the primary contact. Points can only be earned for one organization per exhibit space.
