Exhibitor Information

Virginia Association of School Librarians (VAASL) 2022 Annual Conference

Library Out Loud: Amplify Student Voices

The Virginia Association of School Librarians (VAASL) has a membership of over 1200 school librarians and educators, many of whom are district level supervisors with large purchasing budgets and decision makers for the largest school systems throughout Virginia.  We anticipate more than 600 will participate in this year's 2021 VAASL Annual Conference in Williamsburg.

Your financial support of the VAASL annual conference helps us to provide librarians around the state with this professional development event.

Registering for a booth, sponsoring an event, and/or advertising in the program are perfect ways to showcase your company to our membership and conference participants. 

VAASL is an active organization with both the Annual and Regional Conferences as well as many other professional development opportunities.  This year our sponsorships are designed to give you the opportunity to stay in front of our membership year round.

Sponsorships can be reserved and paid for via the online Exhibitor Registration form at the time you reserve your booth(s).
