Taming the Social Media Beast:
Here's What You Need to Know to Promote Your Library Effectively When Everything Keeps Changing 

Social media marketing has always been difficult for libraries. Changing algorithms, evolving audiences, and the sheer amount of content shared on the different platforms make it challenging for many libraries to find success. Still, it’s one of the best chances we have to connect with a large part of our community, especially people who don’t have a library card. In this session, Angela Hursh (Senior Engagement Consultant for NoveList and author of SuperLibraryMarketing.com) shares the biggest things you need to know to make social media work for your library. 

   

Angela Hursh helps libraries create effective and engaging ways to market their collection, both at her job with NoveList and as author of the blog SuperLibraryMarketing.com and host of the YouTube series The Library Marketing Show. Her background includes more than six years in marketing for the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County and more than 20 years as an Emmy-award winning broadcast TV journalist.

Interest Group Facilitator:  Rachel Cook
