Narrative Toolkit
“A Visit Will Get You Thinking.” isn’t just a simple sentence. It’s a hard-working tagline that acts as a call to action and when placed in the right storylines, activates the public’s imagination. This narrative toolkit is designed to help you create those storylines. It gives you everything from strategic thought, to messaging structure and key sound bites. It is a resource for you to return to over and over as you bring the tagline, and your own Library’s brand to life with new relevance.
