Sponsorships
We are excited to connect vendors and corporate sponsors
with our engaged and active conference attendees.
In 2020, over 1,000 library leaders from around the United States and abroad heard from nearly two dozen vendor sponsors who wanted to support the aims and goals of the Library Advocacy and Funding Conference. These sponsors know how important is it that librarians and boards get the training and information they need to make smart funding-focused decisions. If you are interested in having your company or organization be seen as supporting the future of school libraries and public libraries, please join us as a 2022 LAFCON Sponsor in September.
Sponsorship levels start at $1,000 and every sponsor will receive branded identification within the site along with opportunities to engage with attendees through a dedicated Slack channel. Higher-level options include pre-and post-session commercials, thought-leadership presentations, and live conversations with attendees before and after our keynotes. Social media recognition packages are also available.
Bronze
- $1,000 in direct sponsorship
Bronze level sponsors will have a dedicated conference space during the conference and three complimentary tickets for staff. Your logo will be featured on the conference website, and you will have a dedicated co-branded registration page for ticket sales.
Silver
- $2,5000 in direct sponsorship
Silver level sponsors will have a dedicated conference space during the conference and three complimentary tickets for staff. Your logo will be featured on the conference website along with your branded registration page. Silver level sponsors will be featured on one commercial (30 second to 1 minute) during one conference program and receive one pre-event post on EveryLibrary social media.
Gold
- $5,000 in direct sponsorship
Gold level sponsors will have a dedicated conference space during the conference and three staff tickets and five complimentary tickets to use as promotional giveaways. Your logo will be featured on the conference website along with your branded registration page. Gold level sponsors will receive two pre-event social media posts on EveryLibrary social media and two commercials (30-second to 1 minute) during two conference programs.
Platinum
- $10,000 in direct sponsorship
Platinum level sponsors will have a dedicated conference space during the conference and five tickets for staff as well as ten complimentary tickets to use as promotional giveaways. Your logo will be featured on the conference website along with your branded registration page. Platinum level sponsors will receive two pre-event and two post-event social media posts on EveryLibrary social media; one pre-conference email to all attendees and one post-conference email to all attendees; two commercials (30-second to 1 minute) during two conference sessions and branding on two additional sessions.
Diamond
- $25,000 in direct sponsorship
Diamond level sponsors will be given all the benefits of Gold level sponsorship along with enhanced access to all attendees during the event and recognition as a keynote sponsor.
One key benefit for sponsors is being a part of the conversations and interactions across our conference Slack channels. All vendors will be given a dedicated open Slack channel to engage with conference attendees. In order to keep the Slack friendly and welcoming, sponsors should plan on using their dedicated Slack channels for direct promotional opportunities. This can include AMA’s (ask me anything), exclusive conversations during the conference, special offers and discounts to those who engage with your organization in the Slack channel, and just about anything else you can think of (as long as it’s appropriate). Sponsors at all levels also have permission to use the conference hashtag #lafcon for promotional opportunities.
If you are interested in becoming a conference sponsor, please email John Chrastka at [email protected] or call 312-574-0316 or send us a message on this page.
