Many of the activities sound so enticing - particularly when they have to be adapted for a government library!
Last year was our first time for celebrating Library Lovers Day, we had a morning tea and a display of books in our collection relating to romance, body language and hearts.
Given that our collection focus is certainly not romantic, it made for a somewhat macabre display. We promoted the morning tea with posters around the building, email and posting on our electronic discussion board. As we have many offices within the building, we tied valentines to each door overnight. In the morning people saw their valentine which included a reminder of the morning tea on the reverse (this was simply the LLD heart logo printed on pink card with a red ribbon tie). The "free food" concept is often a good crowd pleaser, and I had at least 2 library related queries (!).

This year the event will be a little bigger, but I think it will be important to have an event outside simply food and a display, perhaps a talk or something that would hold people's interest and really link to our services. Then our clients would have the opportunity to see how much we can offer (besides food!).
