Publicity Toolkit for Summer Reading Programs

The MBLC Toolkit Summer Reading Toolkit has been prepared for all who would like to share the great news of the 'what's buzzin' at your library' and 'tune in at your library' ad campaigns with your local radio, newspaper or cable tv outlets. We have both a 30-second radio script for teens and children, and of course color and black & white ads for the media.

For a listing of all the billboards across the state, click here. Honk erratically and mouth the words, "That's my library ad!" should a driver from another car looks over at you strangely.

P.S. A BIG thank you goes out to SEMLS' regional statewide summer reading committee reps, Lee Parker of Norton and Kitty Schacht of Mansfield for providing useful comments and suggestions for the creative development process of this years current ad.
