First steps on the Scholars Day Conference in Digital Commons

Initial contact with bepress (via phone, their follow up)

Thanks for your phone call! Per our discussion, I'm sending along some examples of event communities where the design stays the same, but the administrators have uploaded different logos/banners in the main content area for each theme below:

http://digitalcommons.macalester.edu/libtech_conf/
http://commons.clarku.edu/chgs/tl
http://digitalcommons.lasalle.edu/asd/

In this example, they actually chose to show slideshows for each year/theme instead of different logos:

In case you're looking at ways to organize the conference, there are number of other student conferences that could be helpful to view, too, though they don't always switch out the logos. Here are a few examples:

http://digitalcommons.pepperdine.edu/scursas/
http://digitalscholarship.unlv.edu/hs_interdisciplinary_research_scholarship/

If you have any other questions or concerns as you plan for the Scholars Day event community, please let us know!

Best wishes,

Jessica
