Bingo!
Bingo is always a popular event to bring community members into the library. These bingos were free to attend and registrants did not need to bring anything except luck. I found that themed bingos brought in a variety of community members as I was able to reach specific interests that we may not have reached before.

The gradual increase in attendance speaks to the success and popularity of these programs.
To further promote library services, I recommend displaying books or other items that can be checked out on a table near the entrance door. This may boost circulation numbers and retain those new visitors who came for bingo but stayed for the books.
