PR Xchange Best of Show: looking for the best of the best

CHICAGO - Your library has amazing promotional materials - newsletters, program announcements, reading celebrations, advocacy materials, fundraising messages and more – in either print or video formats. Here’s your chance to show them off! It’s that time of year again— to submit entries for the LLAMA/PRMS PR Xchange Best of Show competition!

How can you enter? Download the Best of Show entry form and FAQ (includes category options and submission guidelines) on the LLAMA web site at http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/llama/awards/prxchange_bestofshow.cfm. Entries must be postmarked no later than March 25, 2011.

Promotional materials produced between January and December of 2010 are eligible for this year’s contest. All categories will be judged on content, originality, design format and effectiveness by a team of experts in public relations and marketing.

Winning entries will be on display during the PR Xchange program scheduled for 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 26, 2011 during the ALA Annual Conference in New Orleans. Awards will be presented to the winners on that day. Free samples of public relations materials from dozens of libraries will be available for attendees to “Xchange” during the program.
