I dare you to not be moved by this clip.
And I also dare you to follow the example they set. When you report, tweet, promote, blog to your community, connect at an emotional level. Tell the stories, share the humour, make it personal. If people are moved emotionally, they will make a stronger connection and be more easily moved to act, to support you, to engage.
New Zealand libraries – get off your butts and work together to create the Kiwi chapter, using our statistics to show our people, and our politicians, what we do. This would be a cross-sector collaboration worth doing.

Great post Donna. Directly to the point – get off your bum – I like it!
Thanks Hana
Sometimes direct is the only way to be!
Hi Donna, what an amazing video showing the relevancy of libraries! Doing something like this for NZ libraries would be brilliant; but you’re right in that it has to be the whole of the library sector getting involved in advocacy; we all have a part to play 🙂
Very nice post thanks. I really enjoyed reading it very much. Have a great day.
