I hope that many of you will be participating in Library Snapshot Day, our advocacy campaign, by choosing any day between now and mid-November to take a "snapshot" of your library's activities! As we've described before, on your chosen day we'd like you to get a headcount of library users, gather comments and feedback, and take pictures.
The question has been raised about whether we need permission to use photos of patrons, especially children. If you are able to get permission for AJL to use your photos in our newsletter or on our website and blog, that would be wonderful! If your patrons prefer that their photos not be published, that's fine too we'd still be interested in receiving them as internal evidence of the success of Library Snapshot Day even if we can't share them. And of course, any pictures you take would make a wonderful library display or local advocacy tool for you at your home base. So in summary, please take pictures no matter what! And when you send them to [email protected], please let us know whether or not it's all right to use the photos in the AJL Newsletter or on the website and blog. Thanks, everyone! Looking forward to a wonderful Library Snapshot Day!
