The preferred color for @ your library® is red and blue, with the "@" in red (PMS 032) and "your library" in blue (PMS 072).A secondary color option for the entire phrase is black and/or white.
If neither of those color options work, tasteful alternatives are acceptable.
Using the words exactly as they are trademarked-"@ your library®"
Always including the "®" symbol following "@ your library®" when using the correct font.
Examples of not using the brand correctly are….
Inserting words into phrase:@ your SCHOOL LIBRARY MEDIA CENTER
No registered trademark symbol:@ your library
