ILAB Webinar Invitation: Wrapping up 2020 - We did it! But how?
- by Announcement, Rare Book Hub staff
A Complex Year explained from the bookseller's perspective
ILAB Booksellers meet again and look back at a year of challenges, innovation and newly found skills
In April earlier this year, ILAB invited to a webinar with booksellers from across the globe to look at the immediate effect of the COVID pandemic on the rare book trade.
Since April, staff was furloughed, came back and was sent home again as some countries are now experiencing a new wave of infections and restrictions.
Bookshops were boarded off and later reopened under strict hygienic measures. Some are closed again.
Institutions shifted their budgets to 2021, some demanded much longer admin time than usual, others only recently moved their staff out of home office.
Nearly all book fairs were cancelled and the concept of virtual fairs gained momentum. Online platforms saw a major increase in traffic and customers.
How has the rare book trade adapted to this new landscape eight months on?
How did booksellers handle this extreme situation and what have we learned we can share with our colleagues?
Can we take some positives from 2020 and apply to a post-COVID world?
Sally Burdon, ILAB President and moderator of the event, will speak again to:
Mario Giupponi, Italy Brad Johnson, US Pom Harrington, UK Ryu Sato, Japan Hervé Valentin, France and Sibylle Wieduwilt, Germany
