A blog for librarians in all smaller libraries, not just for one-person or solo librarians--all kinds of libraries, anywhere in the world. Management information, links, and marketing tips that you can use right now.
Georgia State University’s library is remodeling its facilities. To keep its employees, managers, and clientele up-to-date on the progress of construction, they’ve posted photos of the work in progress on flickr. They also have some “before” photos, so I assume there will be “after” photos posted later.
You could do the same with your remodeling project, even if it isn’t as large as this one. Another idea is to post them on your website or to have streaming video.
