Rewarding Excellence and Innovation in Libraries
In partnership with Coutts Information Services Ltd.
Formerly The Public Relations and Publicity Awards, the new name reflects the new criteria - developed to recognise current marketing trends.
Library and Information Managers are producing increasingly sophisticated materials and integrated campaigns. These Awards aim to recognise and reward the effective and innovative marketing of library services.
In 2008 PPRG are offering three prizes, across the all-embracing category of Marketing Excellence. The winner of the Gold Award will receive one free place at our annual conference, and the Silver and Bronze winners will receive a 50% and 25% discount on their respective places. They will also all receive framed certificates.
The brochure and entry form are now available to download.
