A Sample of HPL's Elevator Speech

This was shared with the Team Leaders by Greg Simpson about a year ago.I was looking through my notes for a piece of information and ran across this!

We serve 20,000 people every day through 42 locations and online - helping them enhance their skills, succeed in school, find the joy in reading and connect with the world through technology.

I look forward to reading your elevator speech that is specific to your neighborhood library. We have to be the ambassadors of our libraries as you know we are in competition with a lot of competing interests. We have to build relationships, networks and make people take notice of us. An elevator speech is a good weapon to have in your arsenal.

Some I read and liked start like this -

We help kids & families unpack their curiosity at the library...
Libraries provide expert guidance & their resources are in essence free - you have already paid for the resources and services through your taxes......
Library provides equal access for enrichment....
Librarians will save you time in your research.....
We have resources/programs/computer classes tailored to your needs...

Thank you,

Shammi
