[Michlib-l] National Friends of Libraries Week

[Linda Pierce]

“Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call and I’ll be
there, yeah, yeah,/you’ve got a friend.” (James Taylor, “You’ve Got a
Friend”)


The Friends of Michigan Libraries (FOML) would like to remind Michigan
libraries that October 19-25 is *National Friends of Libraries Week*.

The national Friends-support organization, United for Libraries, released
this announcement:

Friends of Libraries groups have their very own national week of
celebration! United for Libraries will coordinate the ninth annual National
Friends of Libraries Week Oct. 19-25, 2014. The celebration offers a
two-fold opportunity to celebrate Friends. Use the time to creatively
promote your group in the community, to raise awareness, and to promote
membership. This is also an excellent opportunity for your library and
Board of Trustees to recognize the Friends for their help and support of
the library.

There are PR and Marketing Materials (including a sample press release that
can be customized for your library/Friends group).
