PUBLICITY PLAN FOR LRS Library website
Check Out LRS
Create a fresh banner to encourage users to click onto it and be led to a page that lists the mission, vision, and values of the renewed LRS.
PUBLICITY PLAN FOR LRS Facebook
Utilize the cover image space to grab attention. Post images of new vision, mission and values in bite size to the Library Facebook page.
PUBLICITY PLAN FOR LRS Continued publicity on Facebook
Facebook is a great channel to hold meaningful conversations with students at SCSU. Work with units of Library such as Reference and Archives to generate contents that may be interesting and useful to students and the community. Plan to publish contents that reflect the values of LRS.
PUBLICITY PLAN FOR LRS Vine videos
Vine is a free social media app that has been taking Twitter and Facebook by storm. The six-second video making app is widely considered the Instagram for videos. Create six-second videos or stop motion animations that convey of values at the Library to attract traffic. See “Vine: Edu Best Practices and Directory� for more examples at http://bit.ly/11ONJzL
PUBLICITY PLAN FOR LRS Library display case
We can promote the new LRS vision, mission, and values using the display space by the library lobby. We can create posters and digital signage (animated) that convey our new image. It will also be a good opportunity to educate students and the public about our services and what to expect from us. This may be done during the first few weeks of the semester. We may also introduce the new technology center using the same display space.
