OAH ANNUAL MEETING EXHIBIT HALL<br />
The OAH exhibit hall is an important feature of<br />
the annual meeting, and its success is measured by the<br />
amount of traffic it receives. Help galvenize the profession<br />
by visting the hall frequently, supporting the vendors, which in<br />
turn ensures the continued availability of quality American history<br />
products and services. You'll experience: the newest and currently<br />
successful scholarship; new technology demonstrations; discussions about<br />
trends in the profession; and connections with people who can help improve<br />
your professional profile. Keep your eyes open forthe “Big Book Binge”—<br />
