[Publib] Let's Talk About It grants

[Susan Simpson]

Alison-
    We have been conducting LTAI programs for almost seven years now. I 
am program director and work with the NC Humanities Council and NC 
Center for the Book to do the programs. LTAI is a great adult reading 
and discussion program; the series are slowly being updated, but my 
participants have proven to be great sports and have done just about 
every series offered, including the science fiction one.
    Through my contacts and experience with LTAI I have successfully 
written other grants for other programs, found the courage and support 
to conduct three County wide Community Reads, and have made many friends 
for the library.
    I recommend that you go for it! I'll be happy to help you if I can.
