[Libs-Or] Use School District Listserv to Promote Library Events & Resources

[Leah Griffith]

We've started using the school district to send out select announcements.  We don't want to overwhelm them with too many announcements, but to use it for special things like the Frida Kahlo program Rosa used it for.

I’m on Newberg School District’s parent listserv, and yesterday I got an announcement about a program happening at Newberg Public Library.  (See email below.)  I thought it was a great idea for the staff at NPL to use the school district listserv to advertise programming.  Rosa told me that she contacted the Parent Liaison at the Newberg School District's Welcome Center and asked if that person could forward the email.  If school districts in your library’s service area do not have a Parent Liaison, maybe try someone in community relations, public affairs, communications, or the superintendent’s office.

For those who may not know about it, the Oregon School Boards Association provides an online list of links to websites for nearly every school district in Oregon: <http://www.osba.org/Links/LeftNav/Education%20Institutions/Districts.aspx> http://www.osba.org/Links/LeftNav/Education%20Institutions/Districts.aspx.

Thanks,
