Catherine,

I survey the members of NEON every year, and in this admittedly
unscientific online poll, ~90% of centers use some kind of hard copy
brochure to advertise their outreach program.

Science in those days worked in broad strokes! They got right to the
point! Nowadays it's always molecule, molecule, molecule...

Hi 

We have an extensive array (45+) of curriculum linked programs for
school groups from Kindergarten to Grade 12.   For a number of years we
have produced a 20 or 16 page 4-colour brochure and mailed multiple
copies at least twice per year to each school in our province. 

We have heard from teachers that they use the brochure as a tool for
considering and then booking a school trip.  While it is good that they
are using it this way, designing, producing and mailing a new brochure
every year is costly (and not very 'green').

I'm interested to know how many institutions create a paper-based
brochure and if so, do you mail them to all the schools?  Has anyone
replaced this communications/marketing vehicle with another one and if
so, was it successful?

thanks in advance
Catherine
