4. Publications

Greetings from the art and publications office.


New Hire
Russ Dickerson joined the NAI staff in early September as IT/AV technician. In addition to the database and computer expertise the position requires, Russ brings an artistic sensibility that will certainly benefit our web site and publications.


Legacy
Themes have been established through the May/June 2006 issue and are as follow:

• November/December 2005: Interpretation and the Experience Economy (Showcasing well-designed interpretive experiences)

• January/February 2006: Interpreting Slavery

• March/April 2006: Interpretive Road Trip (Scenic Byways)

• May/June 2006: Non-Traditional Interpretation in Non-Traditional Settings by Non-Traditional Providers (i.e., airports, city sidewalks, etc.)


The Interpreter
The September/October issue mailed early this month.


InterpNews
The fall issue is at the printer and is scheduled to mail later this month.


Journal of Interpretation Research
I plan to produce the second 2005 issue in the fall.


NIW Materials
I am deep in the production process on the Sourcebook and the program guide. They go to press in early October. I will produce the Federal Agency Award brochures and the multimedia presentations for the professional and media awards in October.


Ephemera
The 2004 annual report has been distributed and is being well-received.


Schedule
My upcoming schedule is available at www.interpnet.com/board/schedule.htm.


Respectfully,
Paul
