Now it is time to promote your
library |
|  Well
done! Hopefully you have followed this guide step-by-step
and you are now ready 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, view here. |
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,
view here. |
