Library Discusses Author Event Frequency and Potential Book Giveaways
Discussion occurred regarding author events at the library, with inquiries about their frequency and the process for inviting authors. It was noted that while local author events are not extremely frequent, the library is open to hosting them if they align with library community interests. The library does not traditionally sell items at these events, but authors may sell their own books. There was also a suggestion to explore grant opportunities for purchasing books to give away, similar to practices at City College, and to connect with Merv regarding potential collaborations.
