From Publication to the Public Expanding your research beyond academiaTiffany Medina
What are the benefits – expected and unexpected — of translating your research for the general public?
• How do you pitch your research story to the media?
• When writing for the media or the public, how do you frame the topic to be explored so it is relevant outside of the research community?
Hear Maria Balinska, Editor of The Conversation US, previously of BBC London, and a 2010 Nieman Fellow at Harvard (need we say more?) address these questions in this one-hour webinar. She also presents some success stories from other researchers as well as one place to start for you and your colleagues – The Conversation US, an independent, non-profit media organization that publishes news analysis and commentary written by academics and edited by journalists aimed at the general public. (In other words, a team of professional editors who work with scholars like yourselves to apply their expertise to topical issues and to unlock their cutting edge research, all at no cost to you.)

Big Read, Big Benefits: Creating Sustainable Partnerships Across Communitiespmano
Getting the community involved can be a tricky undertaking for an academic library. Following a successful collaboration in 2013 with a local public library on its Big Read programming, this university library decided to form a team, take a leap of faith, and apply for their own Big Read grant from the NEA. Every aspect of the process, from writing the grant to planning the events, was new for the librarians on the committee, but the results were greater than anyone could have hoped: sold out events, rave reviews from participants and local media, participation from residents of two large cities, and best of all, sustainable partnerships with local organizations for future campus and library programming.

How do you feel about Social Networking sites? “ Libraries cannot afford to ignore the social networking potential to attract new, younger and more technologically interested customers.” "It's where the patrons are so we need to be visible to them-marketing, information and building community online. Not all patrons have to walk through the door. We can make connections with and serve online those patrons who, for whatever reason, won't be physically in the library." “ At this time we feel the drawbacks outweigh the benefits" “ not sure--need more info"
