"Planning and Promoting Events in Health Sciences Librarieshas a diverse range of ideas and serves as a guidebook for those without any practical event planning experience. The book is a helpful how-to manual for health sciences libraries looking to branch out into offering events or programs. Those already familiar with programming in a health sciences library may still find some sections useful, such as tracking metrics via assessment. Overall, this book serves as an excellent starting point for librarians approaching event planning and promotion. -- ""Medical Reference Services Quarterly"" Readers will find this book inspiring -- it provides many examples of successful library events, and many practical considerations for holding your own. The authors make holding events at your library seem both doable and worthwhile. --Erin Watson, health sciences librarian, Leslie and Irene Dub� Health Sciences Library, University of Saskatchewan To my knowledge, this is the only book on library programming that specifically addresses event planning in a health sciences library context.... I found it helpful not only because of the interesting case studies, but also for providing a cohesive framework to approach programming.... I found this a worthwhile, approachable read. The first section of the book was helpful for me to rethink and re-organize my own practices, and I found myself inspired by a number of the case studies provided in the second section, despite differences in our target demographics and settings. Since reading this book I've already made some changes to how I send out communications in order to present more cohesive branding, and I plan on incorporating aspects of some of the case studies presented into my own outreach moving forward. -- ""Journal of the Canadian Health Libraries Association"" Planning and Promoting Events in Health Sciences Librarieshas a diverse range of ideas and serves as a guidebook for those without any practical event planning experience.
