NEFLIN 2019 Technology Conference (07/12/19) 

Keynote
It's All About the Story with Ben Bizzle

From programming to purchasing, from the website to the reference desk, every library, in every action, is telling a story to its community. What story is your library telling?

Join library advocate, marketer, author, and entrepreneur, Ben Bizzle as he discusses the stories libraries tell, how we tell those stories, and ways to enhance the stories we are telling to our communities. 


Ben Bizzle is founder and CEO of the marketing and web development firm, Library Market. He was a 2013 Library Journal Mover & Shaker and 2012 John Cotton Dana Library Public Relations Award winner. Ben is author of the book, Start a Revolution: Stop Acting Like a Library, and for over 7 years, served as the director of technology and head of the creative team at Craighead County Jonesboro Public Library in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
