Try Strategic Merchandising to Pump Up Library Usage (Eastern Shore of MD Staff Only) Online
*Please note that session link emails will be sent directly through LibraryWorks, not from LibCal.*
There's a lot of science and psychology from the retail merchandising world that can benefit your library. Merchandising your spaces can re-invigorate your everyday displays and signage and increase your usage statistics. Trying it is quick and inexpensive. In this webinar, you’ll learn how merchandising differs from ordinary book displays. Through pro tips and lots of photographic examples, you will:
• Understand how the magic of merchandising can increase library usage and circulation.
• Realize what turns people off and keeps them from entering your building.
• View photos of great (and not-so-great) merchandising from libraries around the U.S. and beyond.
• Realize how merchandising, signage, and displays affect the user experience (UX).
** Please Note: This session is not geared toward ideas about what to display. Instead, it's about the strategies behind good displays, signage, and promotion. LEVEL: BASIC
This training is only available to staff on the Eastern Shore of MD. Please sign up with your work email address.
