NBCC Opens New Partnership Category for Publishing Industry Members
The National Book Critics Circle has created a new partnership category, Sustainer, designed to include a wider range of literary citizens—including editors, writers, publicists, agents, and readers—in the group's efforts. The Sustainer membership, which requires an annual tax-deductible donation of $250 to the nonprofit, will serve the dual purpose of increasing the involvement of publishing industry colleagues in the NBCC’s programming and events and offer backing to the NBCC’s unique existing programs, including its prize program and Emerging Critics Fellowship.
Sustaining patrons will not have members’ voting rights, to avoid potential conflicts of interest, but will receive access to discounted tickets to NBCC events, including the annual awards after-party, and are honored by name in NBCC materials should they wish to be.
