Special Forum at ALA - "John Cotton Dana Winners Tell All"
New
York, New York, June 9, 2010
Secrets
to developing outstanding community-centered library marketing campaigns will
be the focus of a special ALA Conference forum sponsored by the Library
Leadership and Management Association (LLAMA). “John Cotton Dana Winners Tell
All!” brings together experts from JCD award-winning libraries, to share the
approaches to brainstorming, execution, and follow-up that helped them stand
out from the crowd.
The
program is expected to last an hour and a half, including time for questions.
Panelists include:
• Toni Tucker, Illinois State University
• Lori Coryell, Ypsilanti (Michigan) District Library
• Nancy Dowd, New Jersey State Library
Program Chair Judith Gibbons, ALA Councilor at Large, will
moderate.
The John Cotton Dana (JCD) Award honors outstanding
strategic communication for libraries: the art and craft of getting the right
message to the right audience at the right time, for the right results. The
John Cotton Dana honor has been awarded continuously since 1946 and is
sponsored by H.W. Wilson and the Library Leadership and Management Association
(LLAMA), a division of the American Library Association (ALA). It is considered
to be the most prestigious of all library awards in the field of public
relations.
Entries for next year’s competition are due by December
3rd, 2010.
