Hi everyone, Just in case you were not aware, an annual conference dedicated specifically to library marketing, communications, PR, graphic design, market research, videography, social media, etc., is held every November. It's called the Library Marketing and Communications Conference (LMCC) <https://www.librarymarketingconference.org>. Renowned marketing professionals such as Angela Hursh, Mark Aaron Polger and Cordelia Anderson generally attend annually. If your role focuses on any or all of these responsibilities, you may find this 2-day conference incredibly beneficial. Library staff from all over the US (and from Canada)—including those from public, school, special, and academic libraries -- submit presentation proposals for peer-led sessions sharing their experiences, knowledge, projects, research, and recommendations. The conference also features two inspiring keynotes to begin each day, and a pre-conference workshop on the Tuesday before, which requires separate registration. Attending involves costs for registration, hotel accommodations and travel, but LMCC accepts applications to receive a scholarship for registration - email notice is coming soon. You can sign up to receive the LMCC newsletter on our website at the bottom: https://www.librarymarketingconference.org/. Please let me know if you have any questions! I am part of the Library Marketing Conference Group Board (a 501(c)(3) nonprofit), have volunteered with other library staff who plan and manage the conference, and have attended a few of the conferences. Library staff of all types—from graphic designers to social media specialists, website staff, managers, and professors—attend every year. Lastly, there is also a room, aptly called the "Swag Swap," where libraries are invited to share their pamphlets, newsletters, bookmarks, brochures, and swag so attendees can leave inspired by concrete samples of our peers' work. I've seen some of our awesome library marketing staff at the conference and hope to see more!
