Libraries that thrive reach out to all parts of their communities.
Stellar community outreach plans help libraries build the strong
partnerships that undergird these critical ties. Most librarians
know they must reach out to the community to be successful, but
many do not always know the best way to make that happen. Here's a
practical manual designed specifically to help librarians
conceptualize and then implement an outreach program that will
achieve good results. Through examples of library roles within
community outreach, outreach needs assessment, and great tips on
implementing your plan, the authors give you the clear cut advice
you need to build the perfect outreach plan. Barbara Blake, Robert
Martin, and Yunfei Du have years of experience working with
libraries to build community outreach programs. Here's what you
get: Part one: shows you sample vision and mission statements,
lists realistic goals to target in your community, and demographic
factors to consider. Part two: highlights potential programs and
partners, and gives you advice on how to "pitch" your plan for
optimal community support. Part three: teaches you how to develop
and implement the outreach plan. Written for all public librarians,
the concise, step-by-step process delivers the information you want
in the format that you need it. A bibliography of public library
resources make finding further information a snap; and worksheets
on the companion CD-ROM make your job easier by providing
ready-to-go outreach plans for writing and implementing your own
plan. With this book, your library will go from being seen as a
nicety to a necessity.
