Modern libraries are community hubs that offer valuable programs, resources, and spaces that uniquely reflect the diverse populations they serve. Despite dynamic offerings, many libraries struggle to break the perception that they are simply a place to check out books.
Taking control of the narrative doesn’t have to be challenging!
Given the right tools and methods, you can shape your public messaging to communicate value and get prospective and existing patrons excited about library offerings. We’re teaming up with LibraryWorks to offer a FREE webinar on the subject!
In this 1-hour webinar, we'll explore:
- Proven marketing and outreach methods designed to engage new users, and ensure you are reaching the right audience, at the right time, with the right message.
