I designed the 88 page document using InDesign on the library’s iMac.
Earlier in the year I had photographed the student artwork when hosting it at a library exhibition. These images were cropped, edited, and labeled. I followed the same procedure for images that provided the inspiration for the writing portion of the publication; holding all images in a pool folder recognized by InDesign.
Subsequently, I captured the student Word files through our shared folders as provided by the participating teacher. Once placed on the page, these were uniformly formatted using style-sheets.
The only hunt-and-peck processes involved creating the Table of Contents after jockeying page order several times.
After a reasonably scrupulous proof-read, I submitted a proof copy to LuLu.com. Upon it’s arrival, we made a few modifications and I then ordered three copies to donate to the library at $12.50 each.
The publication features the work of over three dozen ACS students. Proud.
