Dear colleagues,

We invite you to a three-part webinar series called Stop the Presses:

will show you why more and more institutions have gone digital with  
their news-oriented publications. It will also help you get ready for  
an eventual switch from print to electronic or to better integrate  
both media by sharing winning strategies, lessons learned and  
practical advice. The webinar is being sponsored by Higher Ed Experts.

Dates: July 7, 8 and 9
Time: 1-2 p.m.
