Youth Services News CSLP Slogan and Theme Survey

[McCabe, Kelly, DCA]

Hello YS Staff,


It's CSLP Slogan and Theme Survey Time!

Have you ever thought about where the Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) themes and slogans come from? Who thinks them up? Well, the answer is YOU! Each year CSLP seeks feedback from front line library professionals - Library folks from across the nation contribute their ideas, and together, CSLP's Board & State Reps come to a consensus.



Slogans should be brief phrases that fit the 2027 theme, while theme ideas for 2028 should be 1-2 word concepts like "Oceanography" or "World languages"

(For a list of previous themes and slogans go to: https://www.cslpreads.org/themes-and-slogans<https://www.cslpreads.org/themes-and-slogans/>/<https://www.cslpreads.org/themes-and-slogans/>)


Some tips for developing themes and slogans:

--Adaptable for all ages – babies through adults

--Translatable into Spanish

--Avoids puns and wordplay that don't translate easily

--Catchy, memorable, concise

--Inclusive, accessible, applicable across settings



Please complete this brief survey (https://forms.gle/ertcz2EMkqtvcVC49) to suggest slogans for the 2027 theme of Mystery/Detective/Suspense and fresh, new themes for 2028.



Suggestions are due by Friday, February 16th, 2024.
