Packing the Power: The Houston Public Library's Library Card Campaign.
Jones, Patrick
Public Libraries, v39 n3 p156-60 May-Jun 2000
In 1998, the Houston Public Library launched a new library card campaign. Through extensive outreach, community partnerships, and the support of a major corporation, the program nearly doubled the number of children with cards in one fiscal year and increased juvenile circulation by more than 20%. The program led to an increase in library funding, and a new visibility in the community. (Author/AEF)
