Volunteers needed for National Press Club's 34th annual Book Fair & Authors' Night

Volunteers are needed for the 34th annual National Press Club Book Fair scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 15, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Club's ballroom.

If you would like to volunteer for this year's Book Fair, please contact Joseph Luchok, volunteer coordinator, at [email protected].

Most volunteers work with specific authors to ensure they have their needs met. A few volunteers will be asked to work the entry doors, welcome and direct people from the elevators, and help with other specific areas.

A current list of 80-plus authors scheduled to be at this year's Book Fair with their newest books can be found at http://press.org/library/book-fair/authors-and-books.

Volunteers will have time to shop, benefit the Club and participate in an enjoyable evening.

Jim Lehrer, recipient of this year's prestigious Fourth Estate Award recognizing a lifetime contribution to the field of journalism, is the Honorary Chairman of the event.

Proceeds from the Book Fair benefits The National Press Club Journalism Institute.
