Résumé
Le présent article explore le passé, le présent et l’avenir du marketing en bibliothèque aux États-Unis. Bien que les bases de celui-ci aient été posées il y a plus d’un siècle, les bibliothèques ne sont pas toutes à jour en matière de connaissances et de pratiques du marketing. Il y a celles qui tirent avantage d’une grande superficie, d’une équipe d’envergure et d’un budget en conséquence, et d’autres qui manquent de certaines nécessités. C’est dans ce paysage contrasté que l’auteure aborde la question des organisations et des publications qui appuient le marketing en bibliothèque, classe les tendances qui se dessinent en quatre catégories, puis dresse la liste des campagnes promotionnelles et des prix de reconnaissance à l’échelle nationale. Une attention particulière a été accordée aux défis constants qui se posent et aux futurs scénarios possibles.
Abstract
This paper explores the past, present, and future of library marketing in the United States. While its foundations were laid more than a century ago, not every library is up-to-speed in its knowledge or practice. There are “Haves” with plenty of space, staff, and money, and “Have Nots” that lack some necessities. In the midst of this uneven landscape, the author discusses the organizations and publications that support it, details the trends in four categories, and lists national campaigns and awards. Special attention is paid to the continuing challenges and the possible future scenarios.
