Know your e-newsletter rocks? Are well versed in community surveys? Have another idea? We are looking for you to lead a learning session - this is an informal presentation to help the group learn about a marketing topic. Please let me know if you have ideas or better yet will volunteer to lead a learning session. New Library PR and Marketing work group I am proud to be a member of the new Library PR and Marketing work group through MLA. Our goal as a group is to find and implement creative ways to promote Michigan libraries at a large scale. We also plan to do a state-wide, multi-year public relations campaign to promote the importance and relevance of libraires – and educate residents, including elected officials and legislators, about library services that go beyond books. If you are interested in joining let Rachel Ash know at rfash@milibraries.org. We will also be using this listserv as a way to bounce ideas, gather input and share our progress so be on the lookout for more.
