Subject: Re: [Answerland-summit] Meeting next week

I agree that the "Presents" was added at one point in order to try to communicate the move to online and the move to one-off presentations as opposed to a one day big event. All that being said, though, I don't personally have any strong opinions about keeping it on this flyer. I support whatever seems best to you Erica!

Thanks for your work on this,
Lori

Thank you Erica!

And thanks for explaining your reasoning for "Oregon Reference Summit Presents." Knowing that and looking at both, I think I'm inclined to keep it. Curious if anyone else has thoughts.

Thanks, everyone! I've just made a color version—not sure it's at all an improvement, but maybe it's a bit more eye-catching? (I not-very-creatively went with the colors of the Oregon flag...if someone has a different idea, please share!)

I wondered about the point Lee raised, too. I think the argument for keeping "Presents" is that it reflects the Summit's shift online to more of a webinar series. At the same time, it seems a bit awkward in this context. Gesse and Lori, are there reasons to keep it at the top of the flyer? I've attached one version with Presents and one without (reflected in the file name), both in color.

Let me know if I can do anything else/generate other versions! I'll be sorry not to see you at OLA next week.

In the meantime, have a great weekend!
Erica

Yes, it looks great; thank you Erica!

I might take "presents" off the top line, but that's the only suggestion I have.

Do you have a color version? I can print in color if we want to have a display version in color, and then handouts in b/w.

Hi everyone,

I'm attaching a possible flyer as a PDF—I'm not sure how to share an active Canva file without introducing a lot of confusion with "teams." You'll notice that it's now a two-sided document for the sake of keeping it easier to skim.

Please let me know if you have suggestions for improvement!

Lee, you spoke for me! Gesse, I'm hoping for the best for you and the SLO. (Followed by a whole slew of other acronyms!)

I have what I think will be a quiet hour on the reference desk this afternoon and can try my hand at the flyer. Especially since I won't be at OLA this year, I'd feel good about having some part in that outreach.

Thank you Gesse!

If no one else wants to (and has more skill) I'll try to turn that into a flyer before OLA.

I should probably start learning to use that Canva access I have. 😉

On another note, Gesse thank you so much for all that you do! I know it's tough times, we're here for you. Hang in there.

Hi All,

Here are the meeting minutes<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J_ywvbCZlDo3Xo514lBCHvrLLO5hdIK0drj8-c5ejkU/edit?usp=sharing> from today. My apologies if you did not have the zoom link—I thought I’d successfully sent a reoccurring invitation with the link, but I think I may have to send a new one every time. I’ll be sure to do that going forward!

In the minutes, you’ll see a discussion about promotional tools for the upcoming OLA conference. I haven’t found an already existing flyer, so I’m inclined to just print out our recent call for proposals<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-U4IUUzvXaZNt_hmuh8iZ9A2mp-nkoxgSkI9zAM0hqo/edit?usp=sharing> to share with colleagues at the conference. (I can change the links, so they are easier to find.) If anyone is interested in making a flyer, though, let me know!

Hi All,

We have a meeting next Wednesday from 9:15-9:45. I don’t think we have much to discuss, but it might be nice to have a quick check-in about the April program and the call for new proposals. Any other agenda items you’d like to add?

Thanks!
