Example

Six months.

Example

I want my library to be the first place people think of when they need a collection item.

Example

I’ve done some collection promotion before, sporadically, but I know my community loves these items and I have to report my statistics to the state library board in six months.

Example

I will promote a collection items from my library every day. These promotions will lead to a 10% increase in circulation for my library.

Example

I will track circulation and holds on the item I promote before and after each promotion.
