This book explores how marketing strategies – used in businesses and organizations – can be applied to promote libraries by placing users at the heart of every decision. It positions the library within a rich and diverse cultural ecosystem that includes bookstores, publishers, professional associations, magazines, and museums. In today’s landscape, the user experience (UX), once exclusive to retail and digital industries, is now a shared priority across these sectors, and a key component of modern library marketing.
From audience research and satisfaction surveys to loyalty-building strategies, cutting-edge digital tools, and the rise of AI-driven practices, the book examines the evolving face of library marketing. Drawing on insights from experts across Europe (notably the Netherlands) and the French-speaking world (Canada, France, Belgium and Switzerland), it offers a comprehensive and forward-thinking look at the new challenges and opportunities shaping the profession today.
Jean-Philippe Accart is a consultant and trainer at JP ACCART Formation Conseil. He has worked in the field of information sciences in France and Switzerland for several decades, with the aim of creating and developing innovative services and sharing his vision for the future of libraries.
