Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Graywolf books introduce new language, ideas, and stories that help a broad readership across Minnesota understand our times and each other. Graywolf evaluates reader impact by capturing and tracking individual responses at events, on social media, and through an annual survey. Critical attention, award nominations, and book sales also help indicate the strength of our books' influence. 2: Graywolf books, author events, and staff enhance Minnesota communities by building and cultivating audiences through partnerships. Graywolf assesses the quantity and quality of event programming and collaborations, book donations, and local media attention. We solicit feedback from relevant partners. Staff engagement across the local community is tracked and evaluated.
