Want to start a new project but don’t have money in the library budget? A library sponsorship may be the answer. Libraries can be a place for public-private partnerships, although clear expectations should be in place.

She’ll share practical tips, strategies and mistakes she made along the way.
Through this webinar, you will learn:
• What sponsors want from libraries
• How you can find sponsors
• What libraries can want from sponsors
• Preparing a pitch deck and different types of sponsorships
• Legal and financial considerations of sponsorships
