What's the difference between an Exhibitor and an Educational Exhibitor? We're glad you asked- here's the answer:

Educational Exhibitors are non-profit or not-for-profit organizations with the primary goal of educating the public. Examples of appropriate Educational Exhibitors include, but are not limited to, county libraries, state park representatives, Citizen Support Organizations, historical societies, historic sites, genealogy groups, veteran groups and other non-profit/not-for-profit organizations.

Exhibitors are for-profit businesses/ organizations that include, but are not limited to, bookstores, independent book sellers, publishing houses, gift shops, and local artists/ crafters.
