The MBLC's Public Relations Advisory Committee was formed in 2007 to build awareness of resources, programs, classes, and professional development opportunities available at libraries throughout the state.
Committee members serve two-year terms and represent all types of libraries and all geographic areas of the Commonwealth. The committee creates and oversees campaigns and a public relations and marketing plan.
