JUNE 2011 - Registration

Interested libraries can officially register for the Geek Indiana Libraries beginning in June. The State Library will send more information prior to this enrollment phase.

JULY & AUGUST 2011 - Planning & Training

Professional Development Staff will offers trainings and workshops throughout the state. These events will be designed to provide your local library the tools it needs to successfully implement a local campaign. During this time, the State Library will solicit input from the Geek Indiana Libraries Advisory Board to begin production of official Geek Indiana Libraries promotional items and marketing materials.

SEPTEMBER 2011 - Kick-Off

The campaign will use National Library Card Month as a platform for its official kick-off in September 2011. Local libraries may participate in the official statewide kick-off or plan their own local event during September.
