Successful Annual Reports: Tips for Content, Design, and Delivery

Annual reports can be a smooth process or a major challenge. Who should be involved in creating them? What content should you include? And should the final report be printed, digital, or both?

If you've developed successful strategies, best practices, or tips for producing effective annual reports that resonate with your board and community, the ILA Marketing Forum invites you to share your experience during its roundtable “Successful Annual Reports: Tips for Content, Design, and Delivery,” on Friday, August, 15, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to noon.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their library's annual reports to share. If you would like to send the report ahead of the event, please email it to ILA Communications and Engagement Manager Tamara Jenkins at tjenkins@ila.org.

This free event is open to all Illinois libraries (ILA members and non-members). Registration is required. A recording of the discussion will be available to ILA personal members 1-2 days after the event.

IMPORTANT: Attendees are not allowed to use AI notetakers, summarizers, etc., or record this event. You will be removed from the event if you use one of these services.
