Using a library's facilities to bring arts to the community is a
wonderful marketing and outreach opportunity, a tangible way to
show the public that libraries offer value, thus shoring up
grassroots support. Editor Smallwood has combed the country finding
examples of programs implemented by a variety of different types of
libraries to enrich, educate, and entertain patrons through the
arts. Her book shares such successful efforts as Poetry programs in
the public library Gatherings for local authors at the community
college Creative writing in middle schools Multicultural arts
presentations at the university library Initiatives to fight
illiteracy through the arts The amazing creativity and
resourcefulness found in each example provide practical models
which can be adapted to any library environment, inspiring
librarians looking for unique programming ideas.
