Inform your staff about this campaign.
While we’ll provide the “Tell Us Your Story” card, the best stories will most likely result though non-scripted conversations members of your library have with your staff members. It is important to let your staff know you are looking for stories and to encourage them to ask people to fill out the “Tell Us Your Story” card if they hear something that could make a good story.
Post a link on your Web site.
We’ll provide you with a nice graphic. Add it to your pages and link to a form people can fill out and email, fax, mail or hand deliver to your library.
Reach out to the community.
Having a library story bank is a great cross-promotional tool for other organizations in your community. Let your community know you are collecting stories. Provide them some posters and story cards and provide Web tools to share your message (widgets) to add to their Web site.
