Hi all, I am the new User Experience Librarian at Shelby Township Library. One of my first projects as the UX Librarian is to have a large event for National Library Card Sign Up Month in September. I was told in the past NLCSM has not been promoted that much in the library or by the township. My reasons for doing a bigger event are we were closed because of Covid, then closed for construction of a new building, then we reclosed due to a burst ceiling pipe. We are finally completely open, with our gorgeous new building. As a result, many of our patrons do not know we have a new address or that we are open to the public again. My questions are: What kind of changes in foot traffic did your library see during NLSCM? Times of day when it was the busiest, depending on location and community makeup? What kind of goodies did you use to promote the sign up month? How does your library do library card creation; paper applications, patron facing computer, online cards? As a librarian new to this role, what nuggets of wisdom to people have to share for Library Card Sign Up Month.
