Reader Survey What Happens when you decide to publish a weekly guide to events and entertainment providing information to thousands of Eugene and Springfield residents? Plentyl Most obvious to us is the weekly deadline, insistent and unyielding. Hundreds of events and happenings laden with details demand conscientious collection, organizing, typesetting, layout and paste-up (to make it sound simple). We have attracted a growing readership and come into con tact with hundreds of people who know what's happening and want to pass that information on through us to you. This has brought countless questions, requests, and suggestions. 'Will you accept letters to the editor ... do you have classifieds . . . can you write a preview publicizing our upcoming concert . . . my free ad was not listed . . . why don't you do reviews (movies, dance, theatre, etc.) . . . can I subscribe? Our eternal challenge, it appears, is to con tinue to provide the desired information to our diverse and growing readership within the all-too-finite limits of our deadline. Policies and processes are re quired to meet our challenge. Help us, if you would, establish some priorities.
