I am a marketing and public relations professional with a passion for libraries. I'm fortunate to work at an independent, Ohio library with 43 employees, three of whom work in our marketing department. We made it through the pandemic years, our circulation and foot traffic numbers have fully rebounded, and we’re on track to increase them this year. Do I chalk that up to luck? Absolutely not. It boils down to a combination of passionate people, a targeted emailing campaign, great graphics, consistent branding, and a solid marketing and social media plan. If you'd like to know what I do at the library, or better yet, what our library does for our community, please get in touch with me. I love discussing the role of libraries and how they are knowledge and opportunity equalizers. We’re so much more than just books!
