ALA/LAMA's 2008 Best of Show PR Awards

You know that your library has some amazing PR materials – newsletters, program announcements, reading celebrations, websites, YouTube video and more - why not show them off? It's that time again - we want you to enter the LAMA/PRMS Best of Show Competition!

All libraries are invited to submit promotional materials produced between January and December of 2007. Judging in all categories will be based on content, originality, design format and effectiveness. Entries must be postmarked no later than April 4, 2008. A team of experts in librarianship, public relations and marketing will judge the library promotional materials. Winning entries will be on display during the Swap & Shop program scheduled for Sunday, June 29, 2008, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., during the ALA Annual Conference in Anaheim, CA. The awards will be presented to the winners on that day. Free samples of library public relations materials from dozens of libraries will be available for attendees to "swap and shop" during the program. For more information about the competition, please contact Sally Lederer at sally@melsa.org, 651-645-5731, ext. 102. The Best of Show Entry Form and FAQ are available on the ALA/LAMA website at http://ala.org/ala/lama/lama.cfm
