Branding for Your Library: Stand Out From the Crowd With Smart, Strategic Placement of Your Brand [Video]

Branding for Your Library: Stand Out From the Crowd With Smart, Strategic Placement of Your Brand

The Library Marketing​​​​​​​​ Show, Episode 150: In this episode, we will answer a viewer’s question about library branding.

Margaret Luedke is Programs and Marketing Coordinator at Juneau Public Libraries in Juneau, AK. She writes, “I am new to library marketing and do not have a marketing background. My library did not have a marketing plan or brand style guide when I started so I am working to develop them now. I’ve found your guides on both topics very helpful! I wanted to ask though, how far do you suggest we take our branding? We typically create a sign to go with in-house displays, should those always fit our brand as well? And should all library program flyers, social media posts, informational signs, etc. be branded? I also wanted to ask if you have suggestions for getting others who create content on board with branding.”

Kudos in this episode go to the winners of the Library Science Tuition Scholarship in Kentucky.
