CSLP 2028 Slogan and 2029 Theme  
  • CSLP is accepting suggestions for the 2028 Slogan (Mythical Creatures) and the 2029 Theme. 
  • Each year CSLP seeks feedback from Wisconsin library staff for future summer slogan and theme suggestions. Libraries from across the nation also contribute, and together, we come to consensus. Now is your time to be heard! Please use this link to the brief survey to suggest a slogan for the 2028 theme of Mythical Creatures, and a fresh, new theme for 2029.
    • Some tips for developing themes and slogans: adaptable for all ages, translatable into Spanish, culturally sensitive and thoughtful, catchy, memorable, and concise.
    • Please share your suggestions between now and Sunday, February 2, 2025.
  • WebJunction builds the knowledge, skills and confidence of library staff to power strong libraries that are the heart of vibrant communities. A program of OCLC Research, WebJunction is free and welcome to all libraries to use, regardless of size, type or location.
