Tell Your Library Story to Woman’s Day
February 20th, 2009 | Permalink | Comment?

Here’s yet another way to help your happy customers tell their library stories. In case you haven’t heard this yet from ALA, they’re working with Woman’s Day magazine again. Here’s the deal:

From Feb. 17 through May 18, women ages 18 and up are invited to send in stories of 700 words or less to womansday@ala.org. Up to four stories will be profiled in the March 2010 issue.

Librarians can download free tools to help collect local stories from the Campaign for America’s Libraries Web site (www.ala.org/@yourlibrary). Click on “Woman’s Day.” Tools include a sample press release, newsletter copy, and a Web button.

More information, including the official rules, is posted on the Woman’s Day Web site.
