Thank you, I will make sure to take you up on that.

Another way to promote the event -- I'm going to suggest that the 
library set up a display of Linux-related books and books by notable 
Linux and free software users. Fortunately Piers Anthony is both 
prolific as an author and a known Linux user, so he might be able to 
fill up a decent chunk of the display on his own ( 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piers_Anthony ) ... any others to recommend?
