Join Lori Fisher in a lunch and learn session about library advocacy! From her years as a public library director into the present as our state librarian, Lori shares some of her best advice on how to advocate for your library.

Topics include:

  1. Why stat-dumping and sharing too much info never works
  2. Brain research & storytelling – why is it effective
  3. Telling the story: five pieces of the story
  4. Community centering & Not using real names/identifying features
  5. How to find stories: library staff and volunteers
  6. Getting your board of trustees involved

There will be time at the end of Lori's presentation for questions. Bring your lunch and learn with this presentation and conversation with Lori Fisher!
