Libby Tilly: Stories for relationship management

Editor's Notes

  1. Colleague story
  2. Referencing story – in a hurry
  3. Grass roots type of impact Great if you actually want to find out what impact there is at all in what you do!
  4. In Cambridge a current strategic focus is to refer to all libraries ALL the time as ‘Cambridge Libraries’ or ‘the library community’ – The stories or narrative that are sued to consistently sell that impactful statement are many an varied – for example – did you know that Cambridge libraries teach more than 5000 students hours a year, or did you know that Cambridge Libraries are using Alma, etc etc. Stories deliberately used as a ploy to consistently embed the impact you want. Eg Twitter – consistent strategy for ARLG. I will re-tweet and occasionally comment on about 10 tweets every morning.
