Booklist Review
Edited by ALA's director of the Public Information Office, these 14 chapters provide ideas and inspiration from talented communicators on subjects both traditional (op-eds, reports, public service announcements) and technological (podcasts, gaming, RSS feeds). In addition to familiar topics, such as branding, there are chapters on values-based approaches, building partnerships, and more. Tips, examples, and illustrations help enliven the discussions. Capturing the experience of seasoned PR experts who are familiar with or active in libraries, the book is easy to read and very positive. It will help the reader to take maximum advantage of technology while honing traditional communication skills. The chapters on effective multicultural communications and affordable podcasts in particular should be useful.--Hogan, Patricia Copyright 2009 Booklist
