11. Description of Example and Its Use in the Library:
|
By using just the five words above it created a visual that could be used for branding within the library or for advertising a specific program. Minimizing the number of words used makes the words larger and could allow for use within a program as a poster to teach or emphasize certain words.

12. Description of How the Example Capitalizes on the Tool’s Potential:
|
The depth of customization to create a visual is what makes this tool so adaptable to any user’s needs. I used my own text and customized it. I also changed it to a star shape which is frequently used in our logo and used our library brand colors.
