 Abby is overseeing the revamp of the bookmarks and signage produced for multicultural services by the SLNSW. Please email Abby with any feedback, suggestions, or comments. Do libraries still use banners? We could design new banners if required this would include changing the current colour scheme of yellow to another suitable colour and ensuring all signage is bilingual. Abby is overseeing the revamp of the bookmarks and signage produced for multicultural services by the SLNSW.
