Abstract
Penn State University Libraries obtained a subscription to Anatomy.TV by Primal Pictures in 2013. One year later, we found that the usage was abysmal. This short talk focuses on our 3-month campaign to promote this e-resource, including our target audience, marketing tools and techniques, and assessment of the campaign’s impact.
