millenniallibrarian Cool Tote Bags??? 2 Monday, 11:07 AM EDT by millenniallibrarian
Thread started: Jul 16 2008, 10:18 AM EDT  Watch
Hello All...
Someone (Maybe Canton PL???) brought a sample of their cool tote bags to the first meeting we had. They had a very cool design and a small logo...which library was that? And if it was YOUR library, would you mind emailing me at christine.ayar@gmail.com? I would like to blog about the bags.
Thanks
Christine

Hi all, our library is looking to create/ redesign our logo. Does anyone have any suggestions? Specifically, I'd love to know any graphic design/ advertising companies you've used and been happy with, and I'd love to know how much in-house development there was (staff involvement, comittees, etc.). Any info you can pass along would be great!

millenniallibrarian Libraries and Recession - My marketing twist 0 May 6 2008, 2:19 PM EDT by millenniallibrarian

Get Through Tough Times...@ your library.
Nine ways libraries can help the public get through our country's economic slowdown:

1 - Try it before you buy it. Money is tight. Don't buy a CD, DVD, or book without "test-driving" it first. Come to the library and borrow it to see if it's a purchase that is right for you. If we don't have it, we'll try our hardest to get it for you.

2 - Two words: FREE INTERNET.

3 - Bolster your business. We have access to databases and research tools that will help you reach new and different markets, even during tough times.

4 - Get the skills you need. Libraries offer classes on a variety of topics. Pick up your library newsletter or visit their website. You'll quickly find you can learn new things ranging from basic computer skills to knitting to how to start a business.

5 – Find entertainment. Libraries offer classes, events and activities for children and adults, almost always at no cost. A fun night out doesn't need to be an expensive night out.

6 - Hold meetings that get results. Libraries often offer low-cost or no-cost meeting spaces. Whether your a school group trying to develop a fundraiser or a CEO trying to launch a business, stop in to see if you can hold your meeting at the library.
7 - Be a well-informed investor. The library has up-to-date stock market information that will help you get through tough times. Make smarter investment decisions with the most current financial information.

8 - Find a new job, a better job, or a different job. Use computers, books, newspapers, and more to find a employment and build resumes and cover letters.
9 - Regain a sense of community. Feeling a bit disconnected during tough times? Libraries are places where communities come together. Stop in and take a moment to take in the action...you'll find it abuzz with information, people, and possibilities!

LaurieGolden Behind Barbed Wire Buseum Visit 0 Apr 28 2008, 11:42 AM EDT by LaurieGolden

I posted this on the Mich-lib list also but for those that don't get that--
I see that 32 libraries in Michigan are hosting the TRACES Buseum exhibit Behind Barbed Wire, Midwest POWs in Nazi Germany. Does anyone want to work together and plan some publicity for this? I'm also looking for some ideas on what to do so post if you have things already planned.
