That was the challenge recently faced by members of the Consortium's
Advocacy Working Group. Why? Well the Group decided that the Consortium
would benefit from having display banners to celebrate achievements and
put across key messages at collaborative events, courses, events and
even the AGM. The first banner will aim to show the power and influence
of collaboration and partnership; the second to promote the flagship
services offered by CPD25.
And how do you wear a banner? Well, having established that the banner
needed to be highly portable by Consortium members, the Group found
themselves packing up and "trying on" various banner stands. Some
looked like chunky snooker cues and we ruled out the one which looked
like a shotgun! So, if ever you are considering buying a banner stand for your library, we found that the key criteria are whether they are lightweight enough to be carried by one person, easy to assemble, and say something relevant. The Advocacy Working Group believes it has selected a stand and messages that fit the bill. Members should be able to judge for themselves at the January 2006 Consortium meeting.
