Positive impressions, interactions, and experiences can mean more support from patrons.  Meanwhile, word of mouth can spread around – up to the  power of eight!   Patron support can make a real difference in tough times! “ Frontline advocacy is about putting your library front and center at every opportunity. It’s about saying and doing the little things on a daily basis that give others positive feelings and an appreciation of your library” ( “Frontline Advocacy Begins with You,” 2010, para. 5). “ Most of us who work in libraries - public, school, academic or special - believe in what we do. Advocacy is simply a way to share that with others” (“Every Voice Makes A Difference,” 2010, p. 1). “ It’s any interaction you have that gives you the opportunity to share information about your library's strengths and needs” (“Frontline Advocacy for Libraries,” 2010, slide 5).
