Notes
This course is designed to provide students with the ability to define and explore the concepts of community, community ownership, and community engagement; situate the library within the ecology of a community to identify existing and potential partners and inform the development of library programs and services; apply principles of message design, marketing, and public relations to the development of professional media and products for outreach and advocacy; and identify theories of interpersonal communication and how these apply to personal growth and the subsequent development of community relationships. https://vimeo.com/637606303
