IBF Offers Personalized Bookstore Calendars

The International Booksellers Federation (IBF) is now accepting orders for standard and personalized versions of its 2008 calendar, featuring 48 photographs of bookshop interiors from 21 IBF member countries. Since the American Booksellers Association is a member of IBF, any ABA bookstore member can place an order for a personalized calendar at the member price.

Calendars may be personalized with a photo of the bookshop, a logo, etc., on the cover. (Here's an example of a calendar personalized by a bookseller from Latvia.)

The minimum order for personalized calendars, priced at five euros each for IBF members, is 500 copies (VAT and transport not included). Logos for inclusion in the calendar should be provided in eps format; photos should be 30 x 30 cm. and 250 dpi (2953 x 2953 pixels). The order deadline for personalized calendars is September 10.

The standard calendar order minimum is 20 copies. The price for standard calendars is also five euros for IBF members (VAT and transport not included).

A calendar order form is available in PDF format. For more information regarding the 2008 calendar and other products, contact IBF's Project Manager Emmanuelle Lenain at info.eurobooks@skynet.be.
