    If you haven’t considered it yourself, see if you can work with the library on a publicity campaign. The library here offers “We [heart] our library” signs for people’s lawns. They get people into a city-wide book read every year and give out free copies of the book to whoever wants them. This year, it’s The Martian. See what services your library might offer like 3D printing or even just free xeroxing and faxing and see what you can do with informing local social media groups.

    My wife is a public library administrator here in Indiana and I would be happy to talk to her about more ideas if you want them.

      I know that they have cheap (not free, you pay for materials) 3D printing and the ability to print from anywhere directly to the Library. They even have regular ttrpg sessions held there. I’ll see what they have as far as promotional/advicacy stuff goes. I’ll contact the library first before I bug you (and indirectly your wife) since they may already have some good stuff set up. Thanks for being willing to help!

        No problem, I am very happy to help promote libraries. I think they’re one of the country’s most vital resources even if lots of people don’t take advantage of them.
