This is great slideshow by Buffy Hamilton on change. I love that it emphasizes that you don’t have to throw away everything and starting anew.  Rather adding new tools and technology to what you are currently doing.

The Girl Effect

I’m showing this for two reasons, one it’s a great example, two I believe in the message. Last month I wrote about using stories to market your library.  This is another great example of storytelling.  This one isn’t about libraries, but it is for a good cause and every effective.  It doesn’t use photos or a voice over, it uses typography to make its point.

Using Stories

Using Stories

Last week I attended a WebJunction townhall meeting on Tough Economic Times.  I got some good info from it (there are two more coming up if you’re interested). Someone in the meeting said we need to appeal to people’s emotions. It made me start thinking how we can connect with patrons emotionally to demonstrate our worth to the community.  Showing them numbers isn’t enough, we need to connect with them on a personal level.  Today I saw this slideshow from Nancy Dowd.  She participated in the Pecha Kucha at Internet Librarian and she showed us a video of the type of stories she is teaching Librarians in New Jersey to create.  It was a slideshow of still photos with a voice over,  and it was  it was very moving and effective. It was a great example of how we can demonstrate our worth by tell the stories of real people and how the library has touched their lives.
