The American Library Association has many large divisions, most of which have their trade show and conference only once every two years. In 2010, the Public Library Association has theirs, and is perhaps the furthest reaching of all of the divisions of ALA. PLA is one of the most consistently successful divisionary shows that ALA has.

This year’s show will take place in Portland, Oregon, and the show will not be taking place in 2010. Combined Book Exhibit’s physical exhibit and catalog will be organized by Dewey Decimal Category.
