Thanks to Dennis Adams, Information Services Coordinator at the Beaufort County Library for sharing this great example. Dennis shared in an email:

"Recently, we've partnered with La Isla monthly bilingual magazine, published in Hilton Head Island, SC to publish articles related to the library (provided by magazine staff) and to local history, culture and nature. As an example of an article about National Library Card Sign-up Month written by a Latina journalist (Enid Carranza) from the Hispanic perspective for skeptical Spanish speakers. Our library staff worked extensively with Ms. Carranza on the piece, and I translated the Spanish into the English version. Perhaps other public libraries could use this article as a springboard for media outreach, at any time of the year. An additional "angle" for readers in both languages, the article points out that libraries are a great help and a place for entertainment in hard economic times".
