Bonus Blog Post: Stories for SWAG!

 

It’s National Library Week from April 3-9, and to celebrate we’d like to hear from YOU. We’re collecting stories from you, our patrons, about what the library means to you. To share a story, visit the library’s website, call us at 847/223-5313, or stop at any of our public service desks!


We’re collecting these stories to use for promotional purposes, so you might see your story appear on our website, social media, in-library signage, and more. In exchange for your story, you can pick up some library-branded SWAG! Once you’ve submitted your story, visit any of the public service desks to pick up your item (while supplies last, items received may vary).

Not sure what kind of story to write? Try thinking of a time the library really came through for you, be it finding the perfect book, answering a difficult reference question, offering a fun and educational program or service, or any time we generally left a good impression.

Or, use the following examples submitted by an anonymous patron as inspiration:

“I love the library for picking up movies and TV series shows to watch. That has saved me so much money over the years!”

“I love that my library card allows access to resources at so many other libraries from which books and movies can be obtained.”

While we will be emphasizing this program during National Library Week, Stories for SWAG will continue after the 9th, so there’s no rush to get your story in by Saturday. SWAG will be available as supplies last.

Your feedback is important to us, which is why we launched this program. We love hearing from you, and we can’t wait to read your story next!
