10–11 a.m. Third Thursdays CE: Library Signage: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
each third Thursday of the month
Join us online or in person each third Thursday of the month from 10-11 a.m. to hear from a guest speaker about an important or arising topic facing the library community.
All Third Thursday CE sessions will be streamed live, but participants who are also attending the IHLS Members Matter meeting are encouraged to attend both events in person at a rotating location.
This month...
Library Signage: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
Speaker: Dr. Curtis Rogers
Session Description:
Customer service and library signage go hand in hand. How do patrons see your library’s signage and does it address appropriate customer needs? The session will look critically at many types of library signs and review the positive and negative aspects of library signage. We will also address how to conduct a signage audit and the importance of library branding. This session also addresses customer service issues as they relate to signage. Online resources will be provided and there will be opportunities for Q&A and discussion.
11 a.m.–Noon IHLS Members Matter

Be the first to hear the latest news from Illinois Heartland Library System, SHARE, and more. Then, it’s your turn! Share your library's wins, ask your peers their thoughts on obstacles you're facing, and tell us what support you could use from IHLS.
All IHLS Members Matter meetings will be hybrid. However, in-person attendance at our rotating location is encouraged so you can get the most out of these monthly networking opportunities.
