Library Monthly Event Signs, November 2011

November event posters utilized a variety of layouts based on the same theme.

It's autumn again, and also time for another set of monthly event listing signs for the ACLD branch libraries. I typically begin working about two to three weeks in advance of when I want to get these signs to the libraries. I pull event listing text from the library website calender and repurpose it for the printed signs. Along the way, text is edited and styled, clip art and/or public domain photography is used for visuals, then proofs are sent out to branch and program managers to review for correctness. A couple rounds of edits are allowed, then once approved, printed out and sent via our Library courier team to each branch that uses the event listing signs (three of the 11 currently do not due to lack of events or a preference to create their own). 


The entire production process is pretty smooth, albeit a little time consuming. The end result, however, produces a common styling throughout the library district when seen (with exception to one non-compliant branch that creates its own).
