For $40, you can sign up to be a "friend of the library" which grants you access to a presale for the tickets. I got an email from the library saying that they would go on sale a month before the event date, with a presale before that. I also read on their site that all events are book signings unless noted. I havent seen anything that says it isn't a book signing, so i'm leaning towards it being one. It also looks like the capacity of the room is 500, so a signing would be able to be accomplished? Sounds fun.

UPDATE - Friday Sept 24th 4pm EST (UTC - 5 hours)
Tickets for Keith at NYPL were supposed to go on sale today but I have heard 2 different--and compatible--stories.
sources: (1) representative at the ticket vender and (2) NYPL employee involved with event
- NYPL originally planned for this to be a 500-person event and are now rethinking that - whether it will possibly be larger, and if so picking which space in the library is most appropriate. Also, they're still figuring out how many comps they're going to give away vs. pre-sale vs regular sale.
- public tickets will go on sale in 2 weeks; pre-sale might be sometime next week. All TBD.

howja know which information I got from showclix and which from NYPL? I just didn't mention all the details about signing up on email list etc because it had already been covered earlier in this thread.

we might want to consider letting the nice library people make their announcement, as they keep telling us they will, when they have more info...?
