DEADLINE: ABA Children's Institute Scholarship Applications
ABA’s scholarship program aims to create a more equitable path to entry for booksellers and/or bookstore owners who hope to make a career in the industry, as well as booksellers/bookstore owners who might not be able to attend otherwise. The Children's Institute provides a valuable opportunity to engage in meaningful professional development and education, in addition to networking and community-building opportunities for booksellers, authors, and publisher reps.
ABA is committed to awarding scholarships to booksellers from all backgrounds.
Scholarship recipients receive waived registration fees to in-person Children's Institute, a comped hotel room during the Institute, and up to $600 reimbursement for travel to and from the Institute. Children's Institute registration also includes 4 complimentary meals (2 breakfasts, 2 lunches), and 1 reception with light fare and refreshments.
