Abstract:

The sponsors list is a resource for writers who want to get in touch with organizations around the country that hire poets and fiction writers for readings and other writing-related programs. It is also used by sponsors to save expenses by coordinating programs and traveling schedules for guest writers with other sponsors in their area.

The 606 organizations included all have active programs, and their listings are current as of March 16, 1979. Addresses, telephone numbers, and names of administrators are included. Whenever available, the budgets of programs and the average number of writers hired per year are also listed. The information is based upon replies to questionnaires sent to sponsoring organizations across the country. The list is arranged geographically within each state. The exception is New York, where New York City sponsors are listed separately. (Introduction)
