NCompass Live: Tops and Flops of Library Programs

Recorded on March 14, 2018

A top ten (and bottom ten) listing of adult programs put on at the Laurens County Library, in Laurens, South Carolina. A humorous look at what has worked well for us and what failed. There will be commentary on each, such as origins of the idea, what worked well, what went wrong, intangible factors, etc. Included will be some honorable mentions of programs that went well, that I did not do.

Presenter: Joey Holmes, Library Assistant/Circulation Manager, Laurens (SC) County Library.

Great program - very interesting and entertaining.

I would have been curious to ask what kind of ad campaign they usually do and how far in advance prior to the event. Giving short notice to an event can be a major cause for flops. Not just the topic covered. I appreciate you sharing your experiences.
