Cindi's Children's Literature Blog Page
|
a. Who is your target audience? Why is this group your target audience?
|
Families living in the Amarillo area that can access the books for free at any Amarillo Public Library location. I believe that children's literature has much to offer adults and children alike, so anyone visiting the library is welcome to peruse these titles and discover a terrific story or learn a new fact. |
b. What strategies would you use to help your target audience to access your blog? Why would you use those strategies?
|
I will post links on the library's website and Facebook page and share the blog link with families that come in and visit the youth desk where I work. Word of mouth is a strong marketing tool in my community, so if my patrons discuss my blog it will be successful. Also keeping social media sites fresh and offering new posts frequently encourages conversations with the patrons accessing those sites. |
c. How will you continue to contribute to the knowledge in the field of children's literature?
|
As I continue to read children's literature, I plan to write additional reviews and post them on my blog. I am also considering posting them on my library's Facebook page as a way of encouraging our patrons to include these titles on their "To Read" lists.
