  In its November/December 1988 issue, Law Library Lights'theme
wasCreative Ways to Promote Your Law Library:Several librarians in
various settings discussed some of the reasons library marketing or
promotion is so important and shared some ways that their libraries
were creatively promoting themselves. Although some of the details
have changed over the years, most of the concepts and approaches
have not, and library marketing remains even more important to
spend some time planning and practicing.

  In Creative Promotion of the Law Library - Know Your Clientele
and Be Visible by Roy M. Mersky and Gary R. Hartman, the authors
talk about the substantial expenses required to maintain a law
library. Though some of the particulars may have changed as
expenses shift from serials, shelving, and space to electronic
databases and resources, it still isn't cheap to have a law library. It
is crucial that we establish our value and promote ourselves so that
people actually know about and use all of the great information and
services we provide.
