How to Create a Future-Proof Nonprofit Communications StrategyJulia Campbell
The human brain is inundated with the equivalent amount of 34 gigabytes of information daily - enough to overload a laptop within just a few days. Blogger Mark Schaefer coined the term “content shock” to describe the inevitable reality in our noisy, cluttered digital world: too much content and not enough time to consume all of it.
We know that the attention of our supporters is the most precious resource. So how can we as marketers and communicators get our message to rise to the top?
Key takeaways:
How to navigate changes and trends in the current digital and social media marketing landscape - what nonprofits must know and what is just hype
The 2 content pillars of an effective and engaging nonprofit communications strategy
How to build your nonprofit communications plan for the next 3 months
Several free and low-cost digital tools to enhance your nonprofit marketing
Real-world examples from small nonprofits and libraries who are getting it right

UX at York: starting small and scaling up (#nclxux)Ned Potter
A timeline of our ethnography and design work at the University of York, encompassing four UX (User Experience) Projects. Includes the changes we've made to services and space as a result of the fieldwork we've undertaken, and our strategy for dissemination.
UX, ethnography and possibilities: for Libraries, Museums and ArchivesNed Potter
These slides are adapted from a talk I gave at the Welsh Government's Marketing Awards for the LAM sector, in 2017.
It offers a primer on UX - User Experience - and how ethnography and design might be used in the library, archive and museum worlds to better understand our users. All good marketing starts with audience insight.
The presentation covers the following:
1) An introduction to UX
2) Ethnography, with definitions and examples of 7 ethnographic techniques
3) User-centred design and Design Thinking
4) Examples of UX-led changes made at institutions in the UK and Scandinavia
5) Next Steps - if you'd like to try out UX at your own organisation
What is UX and how can it help your organisation?Ned Potter

My keynote from the LIANZA conference in New Zealand, #SHOUT15.
This is a library marketing manifesto, focusing on how to be heard above the clamour of everyday life. How can libraries get engagement?
1. We will be community orientated
2. We will do what people need, but market what they want
3. We will cater for library novices and library experts
4. We will keep things simple
5. We will coordinate our marketing into campaigns
What is the most popular activity in the UK? The answer may surprise you. Ned Potter

Visitors and Residents: useful social media in librariesNed Potter
A keynote for the Interlend 2015 Conference. Blog post explaining these slides in more detail at: http://www.ned-potter.com/blog/visitors-and-residents-useful-social-media-in-libraries.
The Digital Natives myth is readily accepted but ultimately damaging. As students (and staff) come into our higher education system, to make blanket assumptions about their abilities with or understandings of technology based only on their date of birth is to do them a disservice.
An alternative way to explore peoples' use of the net is the Visitors and Residents model from Le Cornu and White (first brought to my attention by Donna Lanclos). I find this a proplerly useful way of thinking, which can help us as libraries provide geniunely useful social media for our users, whether they are in Visitor mode or Resident mode.
This presentation explores why the Digital Natives theory is a bust, introduces V&R, looks at the use of YouTube, Instagram, Twitter and Blogs by libraries, and provides links to more detailed papers on Digital Natives, Visitors and Residents, and other insightful viewpoints.
A presentation from the #BLA15 Conference about introducting annual action plans and meetings at an academic library.
The library uses these reports to focus activity for the upcoming year, and build a stronger partnership between the library and each academic department. It's something both parties have found beneficial.
The 4 Most Important PowerPoint RULES for Successful PresentationsNed Potter
There are a million and one tips and tricks for using PowerPoint effectively, but what REALLY matters most? This presentation takes the 4 most important changes you can make to your presentations and explains simply how to go about them.
The focus is on use of images, making one point per slide, not using bullet points, and keeping things simple. Each of the rules is backed up by actual research, into multimedia learning principles, conducted at the University of California.
There's also several useful sites linked to, including 5 fantastic image resources, and a great place to download fonts.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

5. WHY ARE THE NUMBERS UP?
People are online more
during the pandemic.
We’ve prioritised communication –
time and resource has been put into it
and we’ve tried
really hard to do it well!
The Services we’re talking about are
really good. It’s the work of the staff
on the ground that we’re celebrating.
People love the library – that makes
our comms job immeasurably easier.

21. CONSISTENCY
IS OVERRATED
(To clarify, it’s
not that
consistency
isn’t desirable
– it’s that it
isn’t essential.
Better to have
more than
one
personality
than no
personality.
If consistency
is preventing
risk, it’s too
high a price
to pay.)

27. THE LIBRARY COMMS GROUP
Three of us to do most social media.
(Plus the Library photographer also posts to Instagram.)
Two more involved in planning and
other work (e.g. website).
Senior managers for sense-checking, feeding
in key messages, and keeping
us in the loop.
Constant communication via Slack,
rather than meetings or emails.
28. THE LIBRARY COMMS GROUP
Written guidance on using Instagram, Twitter and Facebook
which everyone reads before they start posting.
Peer to peer support always available.
Aim for empowerment rather than control!
No targets or quotas. No formal rota.
Annual analytics and Report to track progress.
29. THE LIBRARY COMMS GROUP
We also use lots of tools within the platforms themselves
Pinned Tweets, Threads, Tagging useful accounts in
images, Alt-Text, Twitter Video, Gifs, Twitter Analytics,
Stories, Reels, IGTV, Split-Panoramics, Alt-Text, Insights
Playlists, Custom Thumbnails, Timing-Links in Description,

Channel Trailer, Embedding in relevant webpages
31. Generally speaking, our Twitter profile
works very well. Risk of over-prioritising.
Our YouTube channel works well, but
takes a lot of time for variable return.
Our Instagram profile is in a new phase
where we’re trying to make it a much
bigger focus of our communication – it’s
a work in progress.
Our FaceBook account barely works at
all. eBook SOS example sums it up.
Our TikTok account… doesn’t exist.
36. POP CULTURE
The Twitter part of the study etiquette worked
brilliantly, but it was harder to translate to
Instagram where the UGs are (all of whom are
too young to get that particular reference!).
42. These are cherry-picked examples of
things which have worked well.
Ultimately we have a fair amount of
social media output that falls slightly flat
– we’re not Orkney! But this doesn’t
matter too much. We don’t mind the
rough edges, we don’t ever try to go
viral, and we don’t post if we don’t have
anything to say.
We don’t aim for a uniformity of tone –
just a uniformity of helpfulness and
friendliness, and genuine empathy.
43. The abiding lesson we’ve learned from the pandemic is that
prioritising communication is worth it, and we’ll continue to do this
going forward even in (fingers crossed!) more normal times…
