Gale, part of Cengage Learning and a publisher of research and reference resources for libraries, schools and businesses, is celebrating National Library Week, April 8–14, by encouraging library advocacy in local communities across the US. To help drive awareness at the local level, and to support the American Library Association theme, You Belong @ the Library, Gale will be offering limited edition bumper magnets with the tag line: Meet me @ the Library, to the first 100 libraries to visit and 'like' the Gale Facebook page.
In addition, Gale is offering free access to dozens of its online resources, such as Powerspeak Languages, Career Transitions and the In Context products, to US and Canadian customers via its trial programme site – http://www.galetrials.com.
Some recent library advocacy programs initiated by Gale include Librareo, Gale ProMo, the Small Library Support Program and the Are You a Librarian Superhero? contest.
