January is (almost) here, which means not only a new month but a new year! Our Resource Center has been given a makeover with new marketing kits and social media graphics you can use to promote ebooks, audiobooks, digital magazines, Kanopy, and more to your community. 

January Social Media Must Haves 

Our Check Out Your Library Marketing kit has been given a winter refresh!  This kit includes Canva templates for social graphics and print flyers, as well as a programming guide and jacket covers.  Customize the copy and jackets to fit any winter theme using the suggestions in the programming guide or create your own!  

Looking for more customizable options to promote your digital library? Our Resource Center has an entire section full of graphics you can customize. Promote 2025 book club titles, staff picks, favorite Kanopy films, and more. Visit the Resource Center to get started.

With a couple days left in the year there is still time to encourage your patrons to help you reach 1 million digital checkouts in 2024 and we have a graphic you can use on social. Already surpassed 1 million (or more!) digital checkouts for the year? Our Million Checkout Club marketing kit is already available on the Resource Center for you to download and use. 

Lights! Camera! Kanopy Must Haves 

As we welcome the New Year, let’s embrace a wave of inspiration from Kanopy! From stories of resilience to those of self-discovery, the Kanopy team is thrilled to present the New Year’s Resolutions collection. Explore the films in this collection here and visit the Resource Center to find the marketing toolkit to promote this collection to your community. 

Although the year has ended, it’s not too late for your patrons to explore Kanopy’s Most Watched Films of 2024 collection. These cinematic gems feature exceptional storytelling that has captivated audiences since their debut on the platform. View the collection here and find the accompanying toolkit on the Resource Center.
