#whatsyourstory Marketing Campaign by Alison Millar CILIP PPRG
The #whatsyourstory marketing campaign was launched by Leeds Library and Information Service in June 2015 to engage new and existing customers. The campaign objectives were to raise awareness of the library service, increase e-loans and app downloads, and change perceptions of what libraries offer. It featured real people telling their personal stories about how Leeds Libraries positively impacted their lives through various media. Initial results found 20 media placements, 365 social media interactions, and over 120 shares of two blog posts promoting the campaign.
What's wrong with fundraising. IOF 2015 presentationqueerideas
Following the criticism of charities in the British media, this presentation looks at how charities have been historically viewed by the media, why charities can cause distress and how we can resolve the problems we face.
There is no strong culture of charity in Belarus and people are skeptical of donation fraud. This proposal aims to make charity fashionable among millennials by prompting donations at popular entertainment events. A message will appear on screens during events, asking people who have time and money for entertainment to "buy time for a dying child" by donating $1 via QR code. Donors will receive a thank you and can share their donation with a special social media frame. The goal is to make charitable giving a habit by integrating it into regular entertainment activities.
The Memphis Family Shelter is a transitional shelter that has housed 247 homeless women and their 593 children since opening in 1996. It aims to prepare women for independent living through job training programs and child education support. If awarded a $5,000 grant through First Tennessee's 150 Days of Giving, the shelter will use the funds to repair an air conditioner and purchase new washers and dryers. The shelter helps women find jobs, housing, and childcare after a few months of residency to successfully transition families out of homelessness.
This document outlines a campaign to increase charitable donations in Belarus. It notes that currently many Belarusians are reluctant to donate, believing the money will not actually help children. The campaign's goal is to show that even small, regular donations can make a significant impact. It proposes using an interactive banner displaying the "butterfly effect" of donations. Additional elements include installing charity-sponsored WiFi hotspots and using social media to share success stories of children helped by donations and showcase the long-term impact through a children's installation. The creative idea leverages the concept of the butterfly effect to motivate donors.
The document proposes a strategy to encourage monthly donations from young people in Belarus. It notes the unstable economic environment makes people reluctant to donate. However, on salary day, people feel wealthier and able to afford more. The strategy is to send SMS messages from banks on salary day, informing people of their deposit while also providing a link to subscribe to donations for a charity helping children. Donors could establish personal connections by messaging supported children.
The document summarizes information presented at the "Give Southside VA Virtual Forum" about various nonprofit organizations in the Southside Virginia region and how people can support their efforts. It introduces several local libraries, Rebuilding Together Petersburg which repairs homes for elderly residents, From the Heart which makes items for those in need, Chesterfield-Colonial Heights Alliance for Social Ministry which provides assistance, and ways to donate, volunteer, and share resources to make a difference in the community.
I have put together a series of slide presentations about the Women’s Institutes as part of my final project for ADED 380 Teaching Technologies,.
Their present format is as yet incomplete, however, they are for the most part finished in terms of being a demonstrative part of the project.
This presentation outlines just a few of the Adult Educational programs that were already in place around the turn of the 20th Century.

Women on Bikes California is an initiative of the California Bicycle Coalition that aims to elevate the voice, opportunity, and impact of women in bicycling through strategic media engagement and storytelling. They are creating the first comprehensive media strategy to grow bicycling in California by building relationships with media outlets, creating compelling content that shifts perceptions, and telling the diverse stories of women who bike. Their goal is to fund Phase I of their "Pedal Love" digital media kit by the end of the year to provide advocates and media with tools to move beyond portrayals of biking as being about "car vs. bike" and instead focus on lifestyle and community.
Libraries change lives and HMP Edinburgh: Simon Parkertalesofonecity
This document discusses how libraries in Edinburgh have helped rehabilitate ex-offenders by providing resources and opportunities. It describes several projects started in libraries, including an independent magazine called Inside 'n' Out created by ex-offenders to share experiences, and a community news agency run by volunteers, including ex-offenders. The library also helped ex-offenders access literacy resources and social support groups. Those who used library services while incarcerated noted that the support helped prepare for life after prison.
The Crosswicks Library in New Jersey was seeing low attendance at its teen and youth programs and events. To engage more local teens, the library staff created a Tumblr account to connect with patrons through a social media platform they frequently used. The Tumblr allowed the staff to learn teens' interests and design new programs accordingly. It helped boost attendance in the short term and created an online space for the library in the long term. The staff later planned a Doctor Who themed holiday party that was publicized through the Tumblr and was well-attended.

Mums in the Know is a website and social media pages created by two mothers in Wilmslow to provide local family event information and reviews. They aggregate information from various sources into an easy to navigate format on their website and social media pages. Their goal is to make it simple for time-strapped mothers to find local activities. They work with local businesses to promote family-friendly events and build partnerships. Examples provided show they have successfully helped businesses increase attendance and trial memberships through targeted promotions. They argue their service is more effective and cheaper than traditional advertising for reaching local mothers.
Communications Strategies for Water and Sewer Utilities RuebmanNew Jersey Future
The document provides tips for effectively pitching stories to the media and building relationships with reporters. It advises designating media contacts and maintaining media lists. Reporters are busy and stressed, so keep messaging simple and accessible. Visuals, specific details without spin, and helping with research can help reporters understand complex issues. Focusing on real human impacts and packaging stories in engaging formats like top 5 lists increases chances of coverage. Infrastructure issues are difficult to sell but can succeed with a designated media liaison focused on making topics interesting.
This article discusses temptation and how to resist it. It argues that temptation promises something appealing to fulfill desires but will ultimately lead to negative consequences. Examples are given of being tempted to keep a lost wallet due to being homeless or have an affair due to unhappiness at home. The author says circumstances can lead to temptation but we must follow moral standards of right and wrong. Resisting temptation through proper standards and virtue will lead to relief.

The goal is to create poetic landmarks that will continue inspiring the community long after the World Cup.
This document discusses the history and evolution of journalism, with a focus on school journalism. It outlines four types of early publications that emerged: newspapers, yearbooks, magazines, and handbooks. It notes that half of current school papers began between 1920-1940. The document defines journalism, campus journalism, and the functions of campus papers. It outlines sections of campus papers and discusses what constitutes news, including hard news vs soft news and key elements that make a story newsworthy. Finally, it lists qualities of a good journalist.
This document provides an overview of a presentation on a case study magazine. It includes details about the magazine such as its name, publisher, year founded, and past changes. It also discusses the magazine's history, including how its style changed over time from a family magazine to focusing on women. Additional sections cover the magazine's main rival, publisher, ownership, audience, and how the magazine has evolved online. The document concludes with notes on theories related to the future of magazines, including synergies between companies and the impacts of web technologies.
This document discusses the launch and results of MyMissourian, a citizen journalism website created by the Missouri School of Journalism.

While there were initial concerns about credibility and control, the site found that citizens generally followed simple rules and produced compelling, original content. The project provided lessons for both teaching journalism and integrating audiences into the reporting process.

Libraries have been offering programming for decades, and in many cases the model has been, "Let’s plan a program, promote it, and see who shows up." This approach hasn’t changed much, even with social and technological changes, not to mention the pandemic and streaming programs. Program planning with a marketing mindset starts with identifying your customer’s needs and wants, then developing programs and services to meet those needs and wants. We’ll discuss how to use research – quantitative and qualitative – to plan and market programs that will engage your customers. We’ll talk about "bundling" programs and services for different audience segments. We’ll also cover how this more strategic approach can save time and resources for your library.
Presenter: Cordelia Anderson, Library Marketing and Communications Consultant, Cordelia Anderson Consulting.

While every library is unique, they all seem to share one thing in common: they could use more money! Grant funding might be the just thing to help buy technology for STEM programming, get a new service initiative off the ground, or complete a renovation. But applying for grants can be overwhelming – and that’s assuming you can even find one for which you qualify. This session aims to introduce you to the tools to make the grant application process more easily navigable. In this session, Kathryn will provide tips for putting your best foot forward when it comes time to submit your proposal. Handouts include a roadmap to success and descriptions of various sections of the application.
Presenter: Kathryn Brockmeier, Grant Consultant.

Have you wondered if your library's website needs some work? How do you decide that, without being subjective? How do you know what to measure, or how to measure it? There are many current standards for content, images, navigation, usability, and more that can be readily applied to your website, allowing for a more objective analysis of what you currently have. A website audit can provide a valuable framework, especially before beginning a full or even partial redesign of your library's site. Learn about data-based principles that can guide your future work and discover some tools that can provide concrete specifics for elements that may need attention.
Presenter: Laura Solomon, MCIW, MLS is the Library Services Manager for the Ohio Public Library Information Network (OPLIN). She has been doing web development and design for more than twenty years, in both public libraries and as an independent consultant. She specializes in developing with Drupal. She is a 2010 Library Journal Mover & Shaker. She's written three books about social media and content marketing, specifically for libraries, and speaks nationally on both these and technology-related topics. As a former children's librarian, she enjoys bringing the "fun of technology" to audiences and in giving libraries the tools they need to better serve the virtual customer.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

We’ve come pretty far
Good Afternoon, my name is Peggy Johansen. I am the director of the Livingston Manor Free Library in Livingston Manor, NY. Our library serves a district of 2,700 people. We generally have 2 staff members on in our 3-room library, located in the southern part of the beautiful Catskill Mountains, about 2 ½ hours from New York City. I am very glad to present our library-based, youth-led newspaper, Manor Ink.
I am going to let our editors introduce themselves.
The paper is a collaborative effort among the library, The Community Reporting Alliance (a regionally based non-profit whose mission is to support local news media), and the residents and businesses of our area who have enthusiastically supported this project
Here Gem and Tyler are interviewing the head of admissions of Sullivan County Community College.
In the process of developing the library’s Long Range Plan in 2011, our Visioning Committee invited residents to discuss how they would like to see the library interface with the community. During that process….
Jamie felt that the young people in our community needed extra-curricular activities, outside of the school, that would provide them with skills for future employment
The idea was embraced by the committee and written into the Long Range Plan. Work began on it last winter.
They provided the knowledge needed to run a paper.
Promotional flyers were put out in town and in the school to attract kids. It began with about 8 young teens and they helped spread the word. Soon we were getting 12 to 15 kids at each meeting! …….This flyer is one we actually used after we had printed a few issues, as you can see by the cover photos.
We used Weebly.com to make the website.
We upgraded to Weebly Pro and here is a screen shot of the website today.
Our first print edition came out last June. This photo was taken when we distributed our third issue in August.
Unfortunately both of these photos were taken within a block of the library over the past year. Following both flood and fire, the community realized the value of a local newspaper, and the kids involved with reporting and photographing these stories came to comprehend these tragedies on an adult level.
In our first issue we did a story called “Imagine Manor” in which kids interviewed other kids and adults about what they would like to see in our town. Now they are delving into that concept with stories on the community’s process of envisioning a new future through formal planning workshops.
Staff members cover Town and School Board Meetings. Brandon serves as a liaison with the Library Board. John’s mother reports that his English grades have improved considerably since he’s been involved with Manor Ink and we can see the evidence in his writing.
But the kids also compile the Fun Page of Happiness for each issue… with puzzles, drawings, song lyrics and reviews of books and movies.
At each meeting, we have between 3 and 5 adult mentors. Mentors encourage, nudge, suggest, proof and help in many other ways. As the librarian, I attend each weekly meeting, though I’m often running out to take care of library business. I work closely with individuals on stories, oversee bookkeeping, provide library resources, submit library press releases and calendar listings to the editors, and coordinate activities as needed.
How does this happen financially? (read screen)Business-card size ads cost $20.00… We have obtained some grants and used those funds to purchase a camera, a movie screen for collaborative design work, software, and as of recently, staff stipends and mileage reimbursement for mentors.
Kelly was a new member when I handed her the camera and said let’s go downtown and interview Maria! You will probably notice the audio and video timing don’t match in this format, so I apologize for that.
and has been a vehicle to highlight library services
The staff and I would be glad to answer any questions you may have. Please send them to manorink@yahoo.com. If you would like to receive a paper copy of the next edition, please include your mailing address. Thank you.
