Editorial Guidelines

The following is a list of guidelines for community league editors to follow when submitting articles for Community League News.

To view the 2024 print schedule please click here.

• Please submit articles in either a Word document or in a RTF (Rich Text Format) file format. Please do not use Excel or PowerPoint.
• Please do not include text boxes or dotted/solid lines to separate stories in your documents. Also, do not include graphics or photographs in your text documents for the following reasons:
  
  
  1. Sometimes the layout program we use will not properly import documents with embedded graphics/photos resulting in lost graphics/photos.
  2. The resolution of the embedded graphics/photos may not be high enough for commercial print purposes and the graphic/photo will turn out blurry when printed.
  
  If you want to include photos/graphics for your stories, please attach them separately to your email. Your photos or graphics should have a resolution of at least 200 dpi.
• Please include in your covering email a priority list of your stories (1, 2, 3, etc.). Send your email with attachments and priority list to info@communityleaguenews.com.
• When you send your email, please include a read/receipt so we can let you know that we received your submission.
• Please submit your articles before the deadline listed on the print calendar. If you are going to miss a deadline, please let us know before the deadline.
• Editorial content is the responsibility of the community league. Please make sure of the accuracy of your submission and check for typos/spelling mistakes.

If you have any questions concerning your submissions, please email info@communityleaguenews.com or phone 780-434-9732.
