UBS Inaugural Exhibition and Fair

It was new to me to attend UBS Inaugural Exhibition & Fair today at The Grassroots Club.

The Inaugural Exhibition and Fair is for librarians, academics and professionals in Singapore.

UBS run this exhibition to serves educators, information provider and individuals who is looking for up-to-date resources and quality services.

It is an opportunity for me who is doing LAS WSQ training to preview a wide range of publications and witness how scanner is being used to capture barc0de for acquisition purpose, the new method can be used for some sharing of acquisition experience in the LAS WSQ training in the near future.

Subject areas of this exhibition cover:
Asian Studies
Business
Computer Science
Engineering – Aviation, Biomedical, Chemical, Civil, Electronic, Environment, Maritime, Mechanical
Life Sciences
Lifestyle & Self-Development
Social Sciences – Education, Psychology, Politics, Sociology & Social Welfare

Many prestigious local and overseas publishers participated in the exhibition. Books, magazines, audio-visual materials and electronic resources are offered for selection and recommendations. To me it is a min book trade fare that is exclusive for in-groups like us who are in the library fields

The new experience make me understand it is not easy to sell book if you want to do it in a way that touch your customer's heart and have it in a quality/value added manner.
