Participants will display their favorite recent or classic book on the walk to the main stage and bring a new or gently used book to swap or donate on site. All books, for teenagers and adults, will be donated to the Harlem YMCA Literacy Zone programs located in Central and West Harlem. The “Literacy Across Harlem” march will serve as the start to a full day of literacy programming on West 135th Street and in the Countee Cullen Library presented by the Harlem Book Fair’s Young Readers Pavilion. Both children and adults will be able to sign up for, or renew, a library card at the Countee Cullen library, and literacy service providers will be on hand to share information about their ongoing and upcoming programs.

    annual report 2006-2007 INTRODUCTION Last year, our signature Readings/Workshops program continued its nationwide expansion, made possible by our successful capital campaign in 2006, which enabled us to establish an endowment to bring the program to six new cities. In 2007, we began supporting writers participating in literary events in Washington, D.C. and in Houston. In Washington, D.C., we funded events taking place at venues, including Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind, Edmund Burke High School, and Busboys & Poets. We also partnered with Arte Publico Press, Nuestra Palabra, and Literal magazine to bring writers to audiences in Houston. In addition to the cities noted above, our Readings/Workshops program supports writers and organizations throughout New York State and California, and in Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and Seattle. Last year, we provided $215,050 to 732 writers participating in 1,745 events. Poets & Writers Magazine celebrated its 20th anniversary last year and offered a number of helpful special sections, including a collection of articles on the increasingly popular MFA degree in creative writing. The magazine also took a look at writers conferences, including old favorites like Bread Loaf and Yaddo, as well as some newer destinations—the Macondo Workshop for Latino writers and Soul Mountain for African American writers. We also offered “The Indie Initiative,” our annual feature on small presses looking for new work, and “Big Six,” a snapshot of the country’s largest publishers of literary books. Our Information Services staff continued to provide trustworthy and personalized answers to hundreds of writers’ questions on topics ranging from vanity presses to literary agents.
