You can build a Library Marketing & Communications Plan​
Instructor: Cordelia Anderson

In eight short 15-minute videos, I will walk you through the process of creating a Marketing & Communications Plan for your library. Each video builds on the previous one, and includes a short quiz to test your knowledge. Templates and slides are provided along the way so that you can begin creating elements of your plan as you go. At the end, you will receive a template and step-by-step instructions to pull all of the elements of your plan together into one document. 

Presenter:  Cordelia Anderson
