Uncommon Partnerships – Government Access

We’re lucky to have a very strong connection with our local government access channel. They help us by filming large programs and running them on our government access channel at a later date.  They also help us by creating Public Service Announcements for our summer reading program and for other children’s programs. We’ve even done promotional programs talking about our services for patrons – online resources, children and adult programs and more.

Our newest partnership with the government access channel is currently in the works – we’re looking at providing a reader’s advisory program once a month with suggestions based around popular books for children, teens and adults. Our first show will highlight Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Everything, Everything and All the Light We Cannot See. The plan is to offer four suggestions for each title to help our community with common read-alike questions and to promote books for all ages! What kind of partnerships do you have that are not “typical”?
