Sell It With Sizzle - March 12th, 2006

About March 12th, 2006

I'm back.... 08:18 pm
I've been floating around at sea, contemplating the profession and have returned to life as a librarian. I split my time now between a specialized science library and a college art library in part-time positions.

What I've realize is that my premise that selling your collections -- and housing sell-able collections is more important than ever.

Just this morning I was at a Wendy's listening to people. One needed a class and connection to a Genealogy collection, another a connect to business resources and another group simply needed to know about the Foundation Center.

I submit to you -- the voices of those who need what we have are active, loud and constant.

As librarians, we need to pay attention to people from the reference desk to the check out line. The check out line in the local supermarket.

What people want from us is hardly a mystery. What programs would work -- not a question that merits a survey.

Listen your way to your next programming calendar.
