  • Marketing Your Library Program--More than a PR Campaign. Brown, Gerald R. Definitions Elementary Secondary Education Human Relations Learning Resources Centers Library Planning Library Services Marketing Media Specialists Motivation Nonprint Media Program Development Program Implementation Public Relations School Libraries Workshops In this workshop, the concept of marketing was applied to school library media programs by examining the relationship between library media programs, the marketing plan, public relations (PR), and promotion.
