Word 4 Word: Durham Literature Festival 2000
2003 Durham Literature Festival	2004 Literature Festival: 15th Anniversary Edition

Between 2001 and 2005, Cornwell Internet was a major sponsor of the Durham Literature Festival; we enjoyed five wonderful years of attending events, meeting performers, and stretching our skills. Graphic designers Sumo allowed us to adapt their designs for the Festival's print publicity, creating a unified look which drew many favourable comments. In 2004 Arts & Business funded us to commission work bringing together the Festival's literary theme and the potential of the internet (read more about this on the page about the 2004 Festival) which took us into a whole new realm of creativity.

The retrospective mood of 2004's "Anniversary Edition" Festival also encouraged us to begin to archive material from past Festivals. We set up an Archives page on the Festival website leading to material about five past festivals (1898, 1990, 2000, 2003 and 2004).

This retrospective mood also challenged us to reassess our contribution to the Festival. Over the five years of Cornwell Internet's sponsorship, our business had grown to an extent where devoting much of a month to the Festival was becoming a problem, and it was clear that 2004's commissions had formed a high point which we could not repeat. In January 2006 we therefore told Durham City Arts that we would no longer be sponsoring the Festival.
