Book Exhibit
The Scholar’s Choice has a long and successful history of
managing academic book exhibits and we welcome them to our
meeting. Any member interested in having their book displayed
at the meeting should contact their publisher as soon as possible
to see if they are amenable to sending the book for exhibit.
Please keep in mind that the publishers pay a fee to display with
The Scholar’s Choice and may not have the marketing budget
necessary to honor all requests, particularly for older titles. The
Scholar’s Choice asks that books be appropriate to the meeting
and published recently. Reservations from the publishers will be
accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until their exhibit
space is full. All requests must come from the publishers, not the
author.

Walking Directions to the ASA Meeting
The Hilton New York Midtown is about a 17 minute walk or a
$6 cab ride (plus tip) from the Westin New York at Times Square.
The Hilton is located at 1335 Avenue of the Americas, also
known as 6th Avenue (between 53rd and 54th Streets) and the
Sheraton Hotel is located at 811 7th Avenue (on 53rd Street).
When exiting via the escalator inside the lobby of the Westin
New York at Times Square you end up on 43rd and 8th and you
take a RIGHT walking East along 43rd, but exiting through the
lobby doors on the other side to take the escalator onto 42nd
Street you make a LEFT walking East. Then turn left onto 7th
Avenue and walk about 10 blocks to the Sheraton which is on
your right, or turn left when you reach 6th Avenue and walk
about 11 blocks to The Hilton which you will see on your left.
While both routes are wheelchair accessible, sometimes
sidewalks will be closed and they are not kept well.
