Ester Luna: 2023 Junior Fellows Program Display Day

Ester Luna's 2023 Junior Fellowship project aimed to highlight events and activities offered at the National Book Festival other than the author panels and book signings. For instance, the Festival also features booths for each of its sponsors and interactive activities for children and families alike, and media sponsors like PBS host livestreamed discussions with some of the authors in the weeks leading up to the Festival. Ester's project consisted in writing a series of posts for the Library of Congress blog "Bookmarked", each of which documented a different component of the 2023 Festival - thus drawing attention to and generating enthusiasm for aspects of this year's Festival that are not as heavily publicized on the main National Book Festival website, and centralizing all of this information on one online platform. Hence, the blog series encouraged individuals and groups of all ages and interests to attend and facilitated participation in virtual events for those who could not come in person, enhancing the accessibility and broadening the outreach of the Festival.
