FML Librarians Write a Book


Congratulations to librarians, Margaux DelGudiuce and Rose Luna on their new book. Margaux and Rose work full time as school media specialists and are part time librarians at the Freeport Memorial Library.

Make a Big Impact @ Your School Board Meeting was inspired by the authors' experiences speaking at local and national library conferences on the topic of making presentations to school boards and forging relationships with key administrators. It became clear that many librarians are unsure how to create a comprehensive marketing plan, and are simply too busy with their day-to-day tasks to tackle this daunting project.

This book details effective strategies for promoting a library beyond the building level in order to make an impact with the influential individuals who make the key decisions that directly affect the school district and library program.
