What’s In a Name?

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Sorry, but we might have to disagree with Juliet’s famous line on this one!

When the July edition of The Dewey hits your library in June, you will notice the accompanying library specific piece got a brand new name: Programs and Events.

Not to separate the flyer from The Dewey, because they literally go hand in hand, but hey, it can stand on its own two feet! On a serious note, we believe the new masthead will make the piece a bit more user-friendly, so that patrons will know exactly where to find happenings, programs and special events at their library. In addition, we’ve incorporated the month and year in the masthead. On the heels of The Dewey’s honorable mention in the 2008 Hermes Creative Awards competition (read more about it in this week’s Monday Morning on StaffNET!), we continue to look for ways to make a great publication and even better newsletter! In the communications/public relations field, we are constantly thinking outside the box and looking ahead to better meet the needs of our target audience – in this case, our cherished library patrons!

What do you think of our new masthead? Please feel free to offer up suggestions!
