Now it is time to promote your library |
|
Remember though that the best-stocked and maintained library in the world is no use if nobody knows about it! Here are a few points to take into consideration: |
The first step is
to ensure staff are fully aware of the library and know: |
| • the location |
| • the opening hours |
| • the contents |
• lending and
supervision arrangements for both staff and clients |
• security procedures
in place (if any) |
• how to use
the library, especially the CRCI codes and more complex resources
such as Adult Directions. |
Posters displaying
the opening times are a simple and effective way of informing clients
of the service. Include a mention of the library on all your marketing
material i.e. leaflets, flyers, and letters. |
| An example of a
Library Promotional leaflet can be found in the 'Downloads' section,

Staff training |
It would be good practice
to allow staff to have time to explore and browse the library, you
can use the Library Training Quiz - found in the 'Downloads' section
to make it more fun and interesting, to view go here.
