SUMMARY:Introduction to Canva for Library Advocates
DESCRIPTION:Library advocates are increasingly asked to communicate with 
 library supporters across different platforms and in different ways. If you 
 find yourself struggling to keep up\, or are creating flyers\, 
 newsletters\, or social media posts with tools that don't quite fit your 
 vision\, you're invited to an MBLC presentation on how to use Canva\, an 
 online graphic design tool that is user-friendly\, free\, and already used 
 by many of the libraries you're supporting. \n\nIn this program\, you will 
 get an introduction to the basics of Canva with a focus on tools you can 
 use to advocate for your library. Live demonstrations will get you started 
 creating\, editing\, and adapting designs like infographics\, flyers\, 
 newsletters\, and more that can be used for fundraising\, advocacy\, and 
 communications about your mission. You will also be provided with a prompt 
 that encourages you to practice your new skill set after the session. 
 \n\nThis session will be recorded\, and the recording will be sent out to 
 all registrants\, regardless of whether they are able to attend live. While 
 you do not need to be familiar with Canva or have any graphic design 
 experience to attend\, attendees must be comfortable with basic computer 
 usage\, including navigating the internet\, basic document creation (ex. MS 
 Word\, Google Slides\, etc.)\, and downloading documents in order to get 
 the most out of the program.
