Ben Bizzle on Award-Winning Marketing, Masters Session, 2015 Midwinter Meeting

ϲʿapp

CHICAGO – Ben Bizzle will encourage attendees to “Start a Revolution: Stop Acting Like a Library” in an Masters Series session at 2015 Midwinter Meeting from 11:45 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 31. Compelled to change the perception of the library as an antiquated institution, Bizzle and the team at Craighead County Jonesboro Public Library in Arkansas developed an aggressive technology and marketing strategy in order to better serve their community and increase public awareness of the library.

Join Bizzle as he discusses their award-winning marketing approach, sharing techniques for success alongside a provocative marketing philosophy that will spur libraries to move beyond their comfort zone and shows how you too can engage your community and increase awareness of your local library. The title of the session is also the title of Bizzle’s book with Maria Flora, in January 2015.

The Masters Series is a Midwinter Meeting chance to hear and talk to experts from across library specialties as they describe their latest in-house innovations in fast-paced sessions (to which attendees are encouraged to bring their lunch). These sessions offer insights into the hottest trends and how librarians are stepping up to them.

Registration and housing are open for 2015 Midwinter Meeting and Exhibits in Chicago, Jan. 30-Feb. 3, at . Use to make your case for attending!
