The concom includes the treasurer\, programming chair\, ops officer\, guest liaison\, publicity chair\, security chief\, registration director\, volunteer coordinator\, dealers' room coordinator\, and more. Mountain-Con trustees are the guardians of the convention and participate in voting committee decisions.

Readercon is the only small convention regularly attended by such giants of literary sf as Samuel R. Delany\, John Crowley\, Barry N. Malzberg\, and Jonathan Lethem.
