Board, Friends prepare for Libcon; Ren Faire and other seasonal programming planned
Summary
Board members and Friends leaders discussed Libcon (scheduled for Sept. 27), outreach plans including a cosplay contest and vendor issues with a promotional banner, and a new Ren Faire planned for November; one committee member said Libcon will run 'from 10 to 6.'
Committee members and staff discussed upcoming large-scale public events. A committee member told the board, "Lib Con will be from 10 to 6," and the director summarized that Libcon is the biggest annual event and that the Friends will operate a manga/graphic-novel table at Libcon on Sept. 27.
The director said regular programming returns in September, holiday-themed activities are expected in October and that a Ren Faire is being tried in November. Marketing staff (Tiara) have been finalizing sponsors for a cosplay contest and preparing social-media outreach; the director noted vendor problems with a planned street banner may delay that item.
Board members were asked to volunteer to staff tables and show support for the events; the Friends noted new volunteer participation and city staff service hours have helped at recent sales.
