Events and Workshops

Recently, the marketing team added a link to the end of news notes where you can View our events and workshops calendar. This calendar will have any upcoming workshops and events in the library.

You can look at any upcoming events in the News Hub. There’s a separate section on the main news page: https://library.missouri.edu/news/category/events

• The marketing team will start adding upcoming events into news notes.

Exhibits

For exhibits, you can take a look at the revamped exhibits page to view information on any current exhibits in the library: https://libraryguides.missouri.edu/mulibraryexhibits

Our “Celebrating Open Access Week” post was in the MU Healthy Today newsletter on Thursday.

We had our first Q&A on Instagram stories this week. People are really interested in what our hours are going to be! You can check it out here.

Thanks to Instagram coordinator Tarira Meadowcroft for doing this!

This tweet got a lot of attention. It’s a newshub post that highlights two libguides: LGBTQ resources and LGTBQ health resources.

Today and tomorrow we will be congratulating our graduating student workers on social media. Follow Mizzou Libraries on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Several of the specialized libraries will also participate.

Also check out our finals “study break” posts!

Take a #studybreak and color some of our collections. @MUSpecColl created coloring pages featuring items from the collection. There's even a #Mizzou edition to get you into the tiger spirit https://t.co/amaKBp7sNE pic.twitter.com/rNwdTPHpAG

A shout out to Kimberly Moeller, who has been sending out regular engaging emails to her deparments. Marketing research done by AdZou has shown that email is the best way to communicate with faculty. If anyone else would like assistance with sending out engaging emails, contact Shannon Cary or Taira Meadowcroft for assistance.
