It's a date! 
Why judge a book by its cover when you can select titles based on appeal factors and their first line instead? Give your patrons the chance to fall in love with new books and authors by setting them up on a Blind Date with a Book! Wrap up books for your display and use our delightful promotional templates in LibraryAware. Search blind date to find flyers, bookmarks, widgets, and e-blasts. 
 
Try something new
Maura Shelton, Library Clerk at the Manvel Public Library branch of the Brazoria County Library System, has adapted the Blind Date with a Book sign inside her physical library to promote her collection and help raise money for the library. Shelton said, “As soon as I saw (the templates), I knew I had to save them right away because they look super cool. LibraryAware is a major part of our operation.” 
Promote all those "free" resources
Does your library offer programs or services that could help your community right now? Chances are good, there’s a flyer, social media post, and digital signage in LibraryAware to match. And, since *we* know that none of these services are free, there are also infographics in LibraryAware so you can let your community know just how much money the library is saving them with those tax dollars.

Spread the word
The staff at Larder Lake Public Library used this LibraryAware template to spread the word on Facebook about their contact-less options as COVID forced some service changes. And Essex County Library took advantage of this ready-to-use LibraryAware widget template in a Facebook post acknowledging the perseverance of parents, educators, and students in the pandemic while promoting their online educational resources.

Communicate changing COVID guidelines
With the surge of the Omicron COVID-19 variant across the world, we at NoveList have noticed an uptick in libraries posting (hopefully very temporary) returns to curbside-only services. It is crucial to communicate clearly and effectively with your staff and community during these quick changes. Whether your doors are open, closed, or somewhere in between, we are here to help.
