The Library Marketing​​​​​​​​ Show, Episode 133: In this episode, I’ll address a recent discussion in the chat of a virtual conference I attended.

The commenter said, “I struggle with marketing our digital collection when my goal is getting people back in the Library.

How should I be rethinking this?”
