Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Graywolf publishes incisive, cutting-edge literature that exposes Minnesotans to new ideas and affirms their lived experiences. Books are evaluated based on creative innovation and cultural impact. We measure our impact on Minnesotans with reader surveys, event attendance and feedback, critical attention, and book sales. 2: Graywolf brings Minnesotans together through literary events and partnerships to form community connections and share in a love of literature. The strength of our community impact is measured by the depth and number of our local partnerships, event attendance, and by the health of the overall Minnesota literary community.
