The Goal
Coordinate, design, and manage the complete layout production for a comprehensive, 20-page quarterly publication to streamline a high volume of community programming and seasonal events into an accessible print and digital format.
The Process: Designing for a Diverse Community
My biggest challenge with this project was taking a massive influx of content from completely different library departments all while making it fit cohesively into a single 20-page footprint. Since the guide is distributed community-wide, the layouts had to appeal to a highly diverse, multi-generational audience—from parents looking for toddler programs to seniors navigating technology workshops. Utilizing Adobe InDesign, I established clear typographic rules and structured grids. This allowed me to condense blocks of text into clean, scannable layouts, ensuring that every age group could find what they needed quickly and effortlessly!
The Outcome
I successfully produced a polished, community-wide publication delivered on schedule every quarter. By transforming fragmented departmental data into a highly visual, organized guide, the final layout successfully bridged the gap between diverse audience demographics and directly helped the library boost its community event engagement.
