Institutions of higher education throughout the country may be considering their institutional environments, processes and practices with regard to rebranding, and innovation. Ideas include what's happening now that is new and exciting in our libraries.

Polger's research interests include library marketing, outreach, and UX (user experience) design and has written and presented on topics ranging from library marketing strategies, faculty outreach, library marketing campaigns, library jargon, and library signage.
