Library Marketing Show Episode 17: 💰How to Convince Your Library to Get With the Times and Take Credit Card Donations!

WATCH NOW

In this episode, we take a question from Emily of North Kingstown Free Library in Rhode Island. She says, “I’m struggling with getting our organization to see the value of opening up online donations. They see the cost of the transactions (usually about 3%) and are scared off, but I argue that only accepting checks is hurting our overall potential. Do you have any experience and advice about this?”

Also we hand out Kudos to Varnum Memorial Library in Jeffersonville, Vermont for their unique fundraiser–a calendar of nude local authors!  Here’s an NPR story about the calendar with photos… they’re are safe for work, I promise.

Did You Notice? This Website Has a Super New Name!

Ladies and gentleman, this week I made an important decision. I took a leap and decided to rebrand this website.

I have been thinking about you for months (were your ears burning?) I’ve been thinking about your jobs, your passion, your drive, your constraints, your strengths, your weaknesses, your fears, and your hopes. I have gone out of my way to talk to librarians, marketing directors, library directors, and cardholders. I have thought about what I hope to accomplish with these weekly posts and where I want the future of libraries and library marketing to go.

I decided that library marketers are superheroes. And you deserve an appropriate place to go online for advice, tips, fellowship, and encouragement.

And so, the new name of this website is:

SuperLibraryMarketing.com

superlibrarymarketing-com

When you type in this URL, I want you to think about yourself and your work the way I do.

You are super. You are awesome. You are heroes in a cynical, hustle-driven, no-holds-barred world.

This thing you do–library marketing–this is valuable work. And I hope you’ll find inspiration in each visit to this website.

I think you are super.
