Title 1 schools work with a small number of resources and even smaller budgets to bring authors to student audiences, host book fairs, and keep accounts with independent bookstores. Luckily, many bookstores do manage successful and profitable partnerships with Title 1 schools. Panelists with ongoing success in partnering with Title 1 schools will share with attendees:
- How to approach Title 1 schools
- How these partnerships are effective and profitable
- How to assist a school in maximizing monies received from a granting organization
- How to build community goodwill through partnership with a Title 1 school
