Acknowledgements
An ambitious project of this nature could not have happened without a lot of coordinating efforts. WordsFestZine would like to thank all of the WordsFest organizers, and in particular, Josh Lambier, of the Public Humanities Program at Western, and Brian Meehan, of Museum London. We would also like to thank the London Public Library for printing and distributing our promotional materials, and Kathleen Fraser, of Western’s English and Writing Studies, for facilitating student and faculty involvement in this project.
