Form 990, Part III, Line 4dForm 990, Part III, Line 4d : Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Other: The Ayn Rand Archives hired a new archivist in January 2012; our previous archivist is transitioning to the role of curator. One major public outreach event was an exhibit celebrating the publication anniversaries of 2 of Ayn Rands major works: the non-fiction essay anthology For the New Intellectual and the novel We the Living, at Chapman University. The exhibit ran for over 5 months and included 2 weekends of guided tours and film screenings. Additional developments include an enhanced Archives reading room, a new office exhibit designed to flow around a recently installed portrait bust of Ayn Rand, and an educational luncheon presented during our summer conference. In addition, the Archives acquired a set of historic chairs owned by Ayn Rand, conducted 14 oral history interviews on the Objectivist movement (yielding approximately 28 hours of taped interviews), and hosted 4 visiting researchers who examined materials from the Archives growing holdings. The Ayn Rand Bookstore (aynrandbookstore.com) continued to publish and sell hundreds of books and recordings on Objectivism and related topics, many of which are not available elsewhere. The new web-based version, the Ayn Rand Institute E-Store, was developed and launched late in the year, providing such content in electronic form for downloadable purchase. Objectivist Summer Conference 2012 was held in San Diego, CA, with nearly 425 people attending.
