Several WESS and SALALM members attended a meeting between Spanish publishers and librarians sponsored by Spain's Foreign Trade Office and the Association of Spanish Publishers. The meetings were held in New York City as part of BookExpo America in May of 2007. Later that day a reception was held at the Cervantes Institute to launch the "Essential Guide to Reading in Spanish" to which several SALALM and WESS members contributed.
