The 2011 Buffalo Small Press Book Fair is happy to announce new opportunities for vendors this year as well!  Partnership with the Western New York Book Arts Collaborative and Just Buffalo have made it possible to offer discounted memberships when you sign up to vend at the fair.  If you'd like to become a member of either organization, simply check the box when you fill out your
