VIDEO PSA: Libraries are a Place of YES!
In fall 2011, KPLA commissioned a video showing the impact of libraries on the lives of Kentuckians. Please share this video on your own library’s website and Facebook pages. We also hope that you’ll take the video with you to community events and group meetings, such as Rotary Club or Kiwanis meetings.

Video PSA series: Kentucky Public Libraries – Every Day, Every Age
In 2010, the Committee put together series of videos to promote the services of public libraries. The YouTube links listed below can be shared on social media sites or viewed online:
- Keeping in Touch – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjSp8go5iAo
- Study Spaces – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TrUXKT0a_0
- Downloading Audiobooks – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eM249oLjsp0
- Statistically Speaking – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE1MFk0rWV4
- Another option is to view all four videos back to back as one YouTube video. You can link to this version if you’d like to have all four videos appear in one link.
These broadcast-quality files can be downloaded directly by you for your library’s use or by a television broadcaster needing a high-quality video to air:
