Lum Chi: 2023 Junior Fellows Program Display Day

About

The Literary Initiatives Office develops signature literary programs at the Library of Congress, including the National Book Festival. As a Junior Fellow, Lum Chi assisted with the development of Festival programming and promotion, particularly with a focus on elevating diverse voices, and writing public-facing content about the authors and their events. She wrote session descriptions specifically for the marginalized authors in attendance and their books. Then, she assigned tags to their events to help National Book Festival attendees find them and support their work. The final part of her project was writing blog posts that spotlighted the marginalized authors attending the National Book Festival. She drafted a blog post that focused on the Black authors and another on the Asian American, Pacific Islander and Indigenous authors. Overall, with this project she hoped to increase visibility, accessibility and opportunities for diverse voices to be amplified and shared with D.C.'s community of readers and nationwide.
