How to market a class/event and add it to the MIT calendar of events:

If your event is part of an IAP/Learn with the Libraries series:

If your event is part of a big series, like IAP , IAPril, JulyAP, or IAP in Octoberor Learn with the Libraries, then you don't have to worry about marketing it or adding your event to the calendar.  Submit Submit your class or event info to the series coordinator as instructed, and Mark Szarko and the Marketing Team Marketing & Communications will take care of marketing and adding it to the calendarpromoting it.

If your event is NOT part of an IAP series:

Most classes and events should be posted on the news site and the MIT events calendar, as described below. If you think your class or event merits more marketing than that, fill out the Marketing Support Request Form as early as possible.

1. Figure out all the details you'll need to market the event (title, description, whether or not to require registration, etc.).
2. If you will need postcards, posters, service desk monitor slides, or other materials, fill out the Marketing Support Request Form as early as possible.
3. If you're requiring registration, post the event on LibCal.  If you need a password or help, email web-lib@mit.edu.
4. Ask your unit's designated correspondent to post the event on the MIT Libraries news site and on the MIT calendar. If you're requiring registration, include a link to the event's LibCal registration page.
