Contains public relations ideas for summer reading programs, reading clubs, author or book festivals, fundraising events, and other library activities.

An annual volume which highlights exceptional public relations efforts from all types of libraries - public and academic libraries, school library media centres, state libraries and networks, and special libraries. The programmes run the gamut from fundraising to reading clubs. In this edition new subject headings include anniversaries, intellectual freedom, building, preservation, and special populations. It provides details on the purpose, type of community, funding, and results allow users to compare their community to those under which the programme was developed and each library can predict the feasibility for use in their own library. Chosen for their original concepts and noteworthy execution, these PR programmes are easily adaptable to the requirements of other libraries.
