If you work, read or do anything else at a library you love, or your kids do, generate publicity for the library and a big, fat cash prize by entering and winning the “I Love My Library” contest.
It’s sponsored by Thomson Gale, the company that publishes reference materials for libraries. Whether it’s your favorite neighborhood library, you child’s media center, or the high-speed online resources offered by your college or university library, shoot a video that explains why your libary has won your heart.
Then post it to the librereo YouTube group site, Deadline is midnight on May 25. On June 1, Thomson Gale judges will choose five finalists. The top five videos will be featured at YouTube for a nationwide vote June 1-11.
The winning entry splits the grand prize with the library of their affection.
