Sarah Johnson who was happy to assist using her strengths of copywriting press releases and other wordy requirements. Kat Merewether for providing the gorgeous concepts and elements for the graphics. Su Bradburn and other library staff for being so positive about the initiative and able to answer questions at the drop of the hat and supply some of the display material. The WCLA for their support at such short notice. The Exhibitors without you this wouldn't have happened. |
