We’ve been lucky that authors and publishers of our featured book have sent us stuff - especially when let them know others have done it. Susan P.

Good idea for discussion. Personally, I build that into a part of my Communications and PR budget request at the beginning of each cycle. When I wanted to do the radio advertising, I initially had to write a “concept paper” to address proposed outcomes, etc. Curtis R. Rogers, Ed.D.

We have a very hard time coming up with giveaways that last throughout day because we have to stay within the budget from COSLA. I note that other states seem more flush and I wonder if we could talk about this in May? Where do your supplemental funds come from? I know I could use some ammunition to shake loose some funds from other sources! *************************************************** Sharon Shaloo, Executive Director Massachusetts Center for the Book [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> 617.521.2719 (v) 617.872.3718 (c) On Wed, 21 Jan 2015 14:55:43 +0000, "Westmoreland, Molly" <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: The NC Center for the Book had 3,000 hand fans to give away and they were gone by 4pm.

Dear All, Correct, no numbers were released. There were some questions about the accuracy of numbers in past years and it was decided it would be best to focus on programs rather than numbers. All events at last year’s festival were at capacity or near capacity and we expect the same for the 2015 festival. Hope this helps.
