Dear Ohioana Book Festival Authors and Illustrators:

The 2020 Ohioana Book Festival is now online! Because of this event being virtual, and therefore recorded, it's the first time we've been able to offer it for listening and viewing after the fact.


Now anyone can check out the panels, discussions, outreach programs, and media interviews, along with drawing and story times for kids, individual author readings, and more! This gives everyone the chance to catch something they might've missed - or revisit a program they enjoyed for a second or third time!


Going to the schedule page below and clicking on the title of any linked program and will take you right to it:

I can tell you that prior to posting the announcement, we did a count of viewers thus far: 2,767! We're sure that number is going to go up considerably once people know they can access the entire festival program online.

Later today we'll be sending you the link to the 2020 OBF author survey. I hope you will complete and return at your earliest convenience, as it will be a great help to our evaluation and planning.

Thanks again for helping make such a great festival - have a wonderful holiday weekend!


Sincerely,



David
