'Slamming the boards'

'Slamming the boards' could be a great publicity tool. The intended date could be published on the library webpage with a link through to the site. Perhaps a certain topic could be chosen for a certain date and time e.g. 'Where to start with your family history' or 'Which tools does the library have to get started on researching your family history'. Another topic might be connected to high school students in how to use the online databases provided by the library. 'How to track down that newspaper article - are you looking for an article on a particular topic?" The pathfinder for finding the answer could be put up on the website at a later date. Perhaps the dates of the 'slam' could be publicised in the local paper a week or so before. It would certainly highlight some of the resources available at a particular library and the expertise of its staff.
