Librarian in Black Blog – Sarah Houghton

A lot of us in libraryland have to write press releases.  And, more likely than not, no one ever taught you how to do it or even gave you a sample of what a good press release looks like.  And, again more likely than not, you don’t enjoy writing press releases, so do it quickly just to get it out of the way, not realizing what a great opportunity you have for reaching out to your users.  Enter 89 Press Release Tips from Publicity Hound.

Every day for 89 days in a row, I’ll give you one lesson, delivered via
email, on how to write and distribute a press release. Each day, I’ll
also give you one opportunity to write a release. For example, if
you’re rolling out a new product, that’s one opportunity. Each day’s
lesson will take you just a few minutes to read.

They’re already several days into the tutorial, so start now!
