About:
Have you ever wished there was a way to magically send announcements about your library's events to your users, without having to lift a finger?
Well, with LibCal's API tool, you can set up a connection between LibCal Events and Patron Point to do just that!
In this session, we'll walk through what you need to know to start using the LibCal API to create a monthly events newsletter that will automatically send information to your users when they opt in to a campaign.
NOTE: All are welcome to attend, but in order to set up this connection, your library must subscribe to LibCal and Patron Point.
