New Series of National Library Week Videos
With National Library Week right around the corner, AL Focus will be releasing a series of videos to help promote it this year. American Libraries’ editor Dan Kraus based them on some of the statistics from ALA’s Quotable Facts about America’s Libraries brochure. Watch for the rest of them to appear on Focus during the next few weeks.

I love this! Can we just use it as is?

Please do! We’re hoping to give libraries some new PR options this year

This is so nice!
I’ve used it on my blog to show off our American librarians. In the Netherlands we, of course, love those enthousiastic clients to.
