Promoting ArLiSNAP
Posted: November 4, 2007 Filed under: ArLiSNAP 3 Comments »We’ve promoted ArLiSNAP in various ways, including the following:
- Deep Linking
- Discussing ArLiSNAP on other blogs
- Promoting ArLiSNAP at conferences & meetings
- Making announcements on SLIS listservs
I think our next step should be creating a formal document for promoting ArLiSNAP & ARLIS/NA within library schools. Megan has indicated that Jared Macken is willing to design the document.
So, besides such a “fact sheet”, does anyone else have any ideas on how to promote awareness for ArLiSNAP?
Thanks in Advance

I think youtube videos are a very effective way to grab people’s attention. Are there any actors or screenwriters out there?
Good thinking Mmacken. One of the great things about YouTube videos is that it is interoperable with other platforms (e.g. MySpace), and it can be easily distributed by viewers (via e-mail, etc).
You might consider contacting chapters to see if they have involvement with their local library schools. When I meet with Panopticon, the Simmons art library interest group, I try to spread the word about ArLiSNAP. I think many library students start by getting involved on a local level. So if you can get chapters aware of your activities, they may be able to help get the word out.
