Frankfurt 2014: Navigating a Book Fair Bigger than Providence

By
Tizra makes books—and book fairs—easier to navigate.
Along with much of the publishing world, we are excitedly preparing for the annual Frankfurt Book Fair next week.  275,000 participants are expected, more than the population of Tizra's home city of Providence. If you're like us, you'll want all the help you can get navigating the maze of pavilions and events, so we've posted web versions of the show's handy A-to-Z quick reference guide on the Tizra demo site, in English and Deutsch.  Hope you find it useful...and that we see you among the 275,000!

Instead of going to Chicago or DC, where Tizra customers are concentrated, we bet on hosting in our home town of Providence, RI. It's not that we don't love Chicago and DC, but we really felt we could do something special with the home field advantage. As it turns out, we were right.
