Email us at design@lib.de.us
Simply add a “Subject” of the item you need (ex: Flyer Request for a program, etc)… Keep in mind we are not a full in house print shop but we can assist for small things or provide resources. Please allow 24/48 hours for response (next business day).

When submitting a request, include:

• What do you need?
  Looking for a certain flyer, need a flyer, have large event you need graphics help with for social media?
• Specific size needed?
  Let us know this size and file type, this is helpful when creating items. Is it for social media? Is it for a printer?
• Give us the content/details, we will take care of the rest!
  We can assist with copy too… just give us what you got so far.
• What is it for?
  Topic, program, other details. Dates & Time of event(s)
  Example: It has to be health focused for upcoming flu shot clinics
• Do you need to meet with us to go over a project?
• When do you need it by?
• Quantity?
  How many and is it something we can print for you or do we need to out source? For example, Summer reading certificates, 100 on card stock, no problem... 1500 on card stock - need to out source.
• Any Logos needed?
  Example: DDL, Friends logo, etc.
• Color:
  Is it full color or do you need it black and white?
• Anything else we need to know?
  Misc important information, is it for all libraries to share? Do we need to post on social media?
• Include your contact information
  In case we have questions - Contact Name, email, and library at the least.

That’s it!

Please Note: Due dates will be set based upon amount of work/what is needed and will be discussed. For anything requiring outside vendors to print materials there is additional time needed for quotes, printing and delivery.

Do not attempt too many times... if you can't get past the My.Delaware.gov after two (2) tries... PAUSE.

To clear and try again:

• Clear the cache and cookies, shut the browser down, open it, clear again (especially with Chrome) then TYPE… don’t use bookmarks.
• Verify you are TYPING the correct information. Do not use old saved passwords on this round. Type it fresh, and if you have to re-save it - Mistype happens.
• Also when typing the Security Question answer, make sure you have the Space between Lima Beans. 

Sometimes in the new tab it will toss an error if you type https://consortium.lib.de.us  (it's the https://) If you get an error, hit back arrow, then type consortium.lib.de.us without the HTTPS:// part… I don’t know why… Trust me I deal with this daily.

If you continue to have issues, please contact me at Christine.Karpovage@delaware.gov or design@lib.de.us
