Have you considered entering the PPRG marketing excellence awards? There is still plenty of time to send in your entries as the deadline for submissions is 31st August.
A quote from one of our past award winners:
“The kudos of winning a national award has really helped draw attention to what we’ve been doing in libraries – and not just among our own customers and staff. Our service is held up as an example of good practice across the City Council and we’ve received enquiries about our work from library authorities across the UK.”
Enter online through the PPRG website: http://www.cilip.org.uk/get-involved/special-interest-groups/publicity/awards/pages/award-info.aspx
The PPRG Marketing Excellence Awards are free to enter for any library and information service in the UK. Entrants do not need to be PPRG members, as the group seeks to celebrate innovation and achievement from right across the library marketing sector.
Many library services make small marketing budgets go a long way by using imagination, commitment and creativity. From stock promotions to storytelling projects, new online services to the launch of major new library buildings, the PPRG awards exist to celebrate achievement at whatever scale it may be.
Winning entries are recognised for campaigns that involve several elements, which may include print, promotional events or displays, e-marketing and use of social media. The judges look at evidence of the campaign’s impact and effectiveness.
Projects must have been promoted to the target group after January 2012 and been running long enough to be able to demonstrate effectiveness.

Winners will receive their award certificate at a PPRG event, and details of their winning entry will be publicised to the profession by the PPRG. Winners will also be invited to speak at a PPRG event to share their experience with attendees.
