Presenter: Cheryl Coyle is the Senior Librarian at Central Piedmont Community College Levine Campus in Matthews, NCSnakes in the Library! Book Snakes and Other Preservation-Related Crafts for Library Outreach
Hands-on craft projects can be a great way to connect with library users, spark interest in a particular collection, serve as a fun de-stressing activity during finals week, and introduce users to preservation and book arts. Join the CARLI Preservation Committee for a webinar focusing on easy outreach crafts, including “snake” book weights and two simple sewn books. No preservation experience is required to host one of these activities in your library!
Pop-Up Libraries: Totally Worth It!
In this presentation, learn how a pop-up library can be used as an outreach approach to cultivate a welcoming community. Learn how partnerships and targeted outreach opportunities can help customize the pop-up library experience and work to your advantage. Pop-up libraries are great ways to highlight collections, showcase a variety of services, and facilitate opportunities to engage with the library in a low-stress, inviting way.
