It’s Good for Business: How to Make Library Collaborations Yield Dividends
Abstract
An initiative by the Bryan + College Station Public Library System (BCSPLS) sought to increase public awareness of library programs and bring in new and larger groups of patrons. A main focus on financial literacy and entrepreneurship led in several collaborations with local non profit organizations and educational institutions.
The partnerships and program offerings resulted in increased program attendance, strengthened community bonds, and an increased awareness of library resources.
