365 Library Days Project: The Beginning
Will you join in? What do you think of the idea? The group is up and ready to go, so why not learn more? Here’s the idea:
Let’s get as many libraries as we can to sign up for and actively participate in a customized, library friendly version of the 365 project. That would mean that if you decide to participate, you would commit to downloading at least 365 pictures from in, around or about the library you work in, for and/or with. Uploading a picture every day for 365 days in this case wouldn’t be practical for most folks, but committing to 365 images in a year could be done fairly easily. It could also have HUGE value for your library.
Just imagine what a valuable historic document you could create for your library with this project! And while you’re at it, at the end of your year commitment, you could contact your local newspaper and tell them about the project, where they could do a story and print selected pictures that you took over the year. Such a substantive advocacy project! It would demonstrate in very real ways, ways that get lost to many people in your community, that you and your library are doing important work every day of the year!
If you decide to take part, please add the photos you upload for the project into this group.
If you take part, please also tag the pictures you take for this project with the tag: 365libs
Finally, if you have any questions, I am willing to help. Drop me (Michael Porter, libraryman on flickr) a line via flickr mail or email me and I’ll help you get things running if you have any trouble.
Take pictures in/about/for your library! Share them! Join this community! Use this project and it’s collection as a powerful advocacy tool!
See you around the 365 Library Days Project Page!
PS-I almost never ask for this sort of thing, but this is a real community based project. So… if you think this 365 Library Days Project is a good idea, please give it a plug on your blog or in your conversations with your fellow library folks out there so we can get more libraries involved. The potential here from an advocacy perspective really is substantial!

I genuinely enjoy looking at on this internet site, it has got superb posts.
Hey, probably I am being a little bit off topic here, however I had been reading your website and it appears outstanding!. I’m creating a site and attempting to make it interesting, however every single time I touch it I wreck something up. Did you build and style the website by yourself? Can a person with very little experience do it, as well as add frequent updates without messing it up? well, great information on here, extremely helpful. white chanel knockoff handbags
I will get to know more new information. Even the website layouts and the designs impress me a lot.
Let’s hope that there is a lot of follow through and in a roll forming machine year we start hearing stories about libraries taking their year long 365 Library Days Project
thank you for it!!!
may be it is a easy tast for three or five days, but done it for 365 is not so easy, greatness is do the simple thing thousand times without error, on the other hand it is great help to enrich the content of library roll forming machine

Persistence is the key to success. Being connected to others through personal experience makes your journey to singing success more alive and can help to generate excitement in your pursuit.
I love the expression. Everyone needs to express there own opinion and feel free to hear others.
This process can be engaged in a group, but you don’t want to influence anyone or be swayed by someone as you create your initial free-form dream list of goals.

Hi! I realize this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which site platform you are using for this blog? I’m getting fed up of Wp because I have had troubles with online hackers. Kudos!
I’d have to agree that uploading a picture everyday for 365 days wouldn’t be practical for most of us.
Hi there! I realize this is somewhat off topic however I wanted to ask which blog platform you are using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of Word press because I have had problems with hackers. Cheers!
