Bandelier-Library+Booth+at+the+Roanoke+Fall+Festival

September 4-7, 2008 is the time for the 55th annual Roanoke Fall Festival. This year, the Roanoke Public Library decided to have a booth at this event. Here are some of the things that I as a library director and others did to ensure the success of this event. 1) Print out items to pass out to visitors. 2) Box up the used books that will be sold at the booth. 3)Pack the boxed used books and other items into a van for transportation to the park where the festival is held. 4)Get other items to the park for the booth. 5)Set up the booth. 6)Unload the used books to sale from the van. 7)Set up a table underneath the booth's canopy. 8)Refill the bookcarts with the used books ready for sale. 9)Ready table to attract visitors with handouts and other informational materials. 10)Decorate to attract as much attention as possible. 11) Make sure that everything is set to go. 12)Enjoy the success of the event and the visitors to the booth.
