[OPLINLIST] Call for ideas: 2026 CSLP summer program slogan and 2027 theme - February 15 deadline

[jdwyer at library.ohio.gov]

Cross-posted. Please excuse duplication.

While you may be busy planning for your 2023 Summer Library Program, please take a few minutes during the next few weeks to help plan for future offerings from the Collaborative Summer Library Program<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/cslp_26slogan_27theme> (CSLP).

CSLP is asking for suggestions from librarians nationwide for:

  *   2026 program slogan - the 2026 theme is Dinosaurs and the artist is Kaylani Juanita<http://kaylanijuanita.com/index.html>.
  *   2027 program theme - artist TBD

A CSLP theme is a general topic to frame SLP programming, decorations, etc., such as animals or oceanography.

A CSLP slogan is the catchphrase or name of the SLP, based on the theme, such as "Tails and Tales" or "Oceans of Possibilities."
A good slogan is memorable and enlivens the theme. The slogan must be appropriate for all age groups (early literacy, children, teens, adults) and the concept of it must be translatable to Spanish.

Past and future CSLP slogans and themes are listed here: www.cslpreads.org/themes-and-slogans/<http://www.cslpreads.org/themes-and-slogans/>

Suggest the themes and slogans you'd like to have for your SLP!
Complete this survey to suggest up to 3 slogans for 2026 and up to 3 themes for 2027:
www.surveymonkey.com/r/cslp_26slogan_27theme<http://www.surveymonkey.com/r/cslp_26slogan_27theme>

All questions are optional. There is also a feedback opportunity, should you have any other suggestions for the CSLP or any questions.

Multiple staff members from your library may respond to this survey. Each respondent should complete the survey separately.

The deadline to submit theme and slogan suggestions is Noon on Wednesday, February 15. I will compile the suggestions from Ohio librarians and submit to CSLP. They will be considered along with suggestions from the other states and territories, and will be decided at the CSLP's Annual Meeting later this year.

All Ohio public libraries are members of CSLP and have input and access to their materials, with support from federal Institute of Museum and Library Services LSTA funds administered by the State Library of Ohio.

Thank you for sharing your ideas!

Sincerely,
Janet
