connecting library events with your community and your collection
DESCRIPTION
Increase your circulation and your community connections by carefully curating the events offered by your library. Library programs are an ideal way to promote specific areas of your collection by creating attractive displays that double as a marketing tool. Reaching out to community groups and organizations increases attendance and participation in events. Learn how you can create dynamic programs while highlighting your collections and services.
