Eric Jennings Reference & Instruction Librarian University of Wisconsin Kathryn Tvaruzka Education Reference Librarian University of Wisconsin Abstract Libraries know that in order to stay relevant with users, they must provide something Google can't - a personal connection. At the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire's McIntyre Library, librarians have been given the freedom to change the atmosphere and break stereotypes typically associated with the library and librarians. Unfortunately, there is one hitch: the library has little to no money to put towards events or campaigns. To break stereotypes, the library freely or cheaply has: used Facebook for student contests, hosted programs not typically associated with an academic library (story time), rethought the library giveaway (fortune cookies and free coffee), introduced leisure activities into the library, and participated in dress-up days within the library and outside of the library (intramural ultimate frisbee and bowling leagues) for staff and student workers. As a result of these efforts, the library has seen an increase in communication and participation between departments and increased door counts. By changing the atmosphere in the library and challenging stereotypes associated with librarians, the library has become a fun and productive place of work for library staff in addition to a place where students, faculty, and staff want to meet friends, study, or conduct research.
