  • How can I support my library at a 10K race?

    I am a reference librarian, and looking for a unique way to promote my library. I am also a runner, so I was thinking of running a 10K race, and using that as a way of promotion; but aside from wearing a library t-shirt during the race, I don't have any better ideas for marketing. The funding for our library isn't great, so I'm pretty sure that "sponsoring" a race would be unrealistic. Can anyone give me any ideas for supporting/marketing/promoting my public library at a 10K race??

  • Can/Should I plant climbing hydrangeas in the fall?

    I live in Ohio, and I'm not an expert with gardening, and even though I try my best, my attempts usually fail. I'm thinking if I can just have a climbing vine it will be less maintenance throughout the year. I've cleaned up and combed my gardening bed which is at the base of a surrounding fence. Would you advise that I wait until the spring to plant the seeds to a climbing hydrangea or could I plant them now in the fall so that they can start maturing?

  • Is it better to get a masters or a doctorate?

    I know I want to go back to graduate school for a degree in English, because I am interested in teaching at a postgraduate level. There are several universities who hire individuals with their masters in the subject area they would be teaching. I'm leaning more towards the Masters program, because isn't it true that if you get your doctorate degree, you have to have so many publications and additional schooling to maintain doctoral status? And I don't want to do that. I don't want to spend my entire life studying, I want to enjoy life. I am passionate about English in many ways, and I would love to teach the subject. What is your advice?

  • How do I write a press release for my business without making it sound like an advertisement?

    I have a website as an online business that makes personalized bibliographies for individuals seeking information. I know it would do really great if more people knew about it, but I'm having trouble getting the word out. I think the best thing for me to do would be to write up a press release and send it to relevant publications. The only problem is, I know if I make it sound too much like an "ad," they're not going to publish it. How can I think of a way to write a press release to advertise my site that will get published?

  • How can I market/advertise my new bibliography website?

    I've just launched a new website about a month ago:

    www.mybiblionline.com

    I am an accredited reference librarian, and work in a very reputable library system. The website I've created allows my patrons to specify their informational needs in several specifications (through the great online form) and I provide them with a bibliography of substantial sources they can use to learn about their desired topic. The charge for this service is very reasonable, and I know that if more people knew about this service, it would branch out and be a great success! Can anyone please give me some ideas on how to market this great new service?
