Essex Library Blogs Win Award!
February 15, 2008
The Connecticut Library Association has selected the Essex Library’s two blogs, The Short List and The In-Site Bank, for their 2008 Publicity Award.
The Essex Library will be presented with the award during the Connecticut Library Association’s Annual Conference scheduled for April 29, 2008. The winning blogs will be showcased at the Conference during a presentation led by Essex Librarian Ann Thompson.
“Ann developed the concept for the blogs,” said Essex Library Director Bridget Quinn-Carey, “she also designed, implemented and continues to update the spots on an almost daily basis. We are so proud of her creative work and for putting our Library on the cutting edge of interactive Web services.”
The CLA Publicity Awards accepts nominations annually from member libraries for materials designed by their library to promote a library concept or event. A panel of two or more designers/artists and a representative from the library field selects the winning entries. Entries are judged for content, originality and design.
