Format

News items or Press Releases (brief official statements and announcements delivered in a journalistic style to media), are produced by the Marketing department. In the context of the Liebertpub.com website, these items are listed by default on the website Home page, the Company News section, and optionally, one or more publication News Release tabs.

For each item include:

1. Contact Information (Contact name, Company name, Contact phone and email address)*
2. Headline
3. Lede or summary beginning with Company location (New Rochelle, NY) and release date
4. Body
5. Description of Company/Publisher, Journal/Product or Society
6. Cover Image (typically, a cover image for a journal is provided, particularly if the Press Release is specific to one publication)
7. Company Contact information is also provided by default (name, mailing address, phone, fax, email, web address)

*News items do not include Contact information

Editorial Style

• Hyperlinks – Underlined and Liebert burgundy brand color #892035 
• Journal Titles – Bold and italicized excepting where many publication titles are listed within the Publisher description
• Editorial Board Members and Authors – Bold
• Office Location and Date – Italicized

Elements of this page are preformatted and/or preset including headline text, contact information, and company contact information. Try to use the default styling for the body and description areas.

Avoid using:

• fonts other than Roboto.
• text that is not uniform in size.
• link colors other than the Liebert brand color. This includes gray or blue underlines.
• text colors other than dark gray (with the exception of links).
• horizontal rules above or below the body or description text.

Try to use:

• #892035 for link color

Make sure to strip out any inline styling or extraneous html tags which may be applied by email templates and text editors including Microsoft Word. These would include any <span> or <tbody><table><tr><td> elements. Removing them will allow the default styling to be applied.
