sxsw Interactive Book Readings
FROM http://2008.sxsw.com/interactive/programming/readings/
From Malcolm Gladwell to Neal Pollack to Jeffrey Zeldman, authors have always been a big part of the SXSW Interactive Festival. For 2008, we will showcase some of the most interesting new titles related to emerging media via our new Book Readings program. Select authors will be given a 20-minute timeslot to talk about their new book, at which point they will be available to sign copies of their work at the SouthByBookstore.
This Book Reading program will take place on the Adobe Day Stage, which is adjacent to the iF! Trade Show + Exhibition. A day-by-day schedule for these signings will be posted in January. If you have questions, please e-mail interpanels at sxsw dot com.
