Canva share for Banned Books Week
by Katie Rothley 29 Sep '23

29 Sep '23

Hi all, I know it's pretty late in the day now but... I created 11 features of individual challenged or banned book titles for Banned Books Week in the Instagram story format that we are going to use next week, and wanted to share with you (you can simultaneously use this for Facebook stories and schedule them at the same time in Business Suite's Content Planning area if you like). I used a free header from ALA's website - the "Let Freedom Read" graphic. Our posts were admin approved ahead of time, so make sure to check-in with yours before you post, just in case. Please make a copy first before you make any edits so that other libraries can also take the templates to use and edit as they see fit: Banned Books Week Canva file for stories <https://www.canva.com/design/DAFv3AKy8Ws/dkJvXyc9DNiu9piwTMMMYQ/edit?utm_co…> They do not have our branding on them, just ALA's. I cross-posted to our consortium, so if there are other libraries on Michlib that are a part of other consortium's and want to share, feel welcome to. Have a great weekend! -- Katie Rothley, MLIS Marketing & Public Relations Librarian Northville District Library 212 West Cady Street Northville, MI 48167 (248) 349-3020 <callto:(248)+349-3020> ext. 221 https://northvillelibrary.org My working day may not be your working day. Please do not feel obligated to reply to this email outside of your normal working hours.
