<p class="MsoNormal">Interested in library marketing? Want to help spread the word about all the many reasons Michigan libraries are amazing?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">MLA has a new Library PR and Marketing work group volunteer opportunity this year and we are seeking interested members to participate. Our goal as a group is to find and implement creative ways to promote Michigan libraries at a large
scale. We also plan to do a state-wide, multi-year public relations campaign to promote the importance and relevance of libraires – and educate residents, including elected officials and legislators, about library services that go beyond books.
