Wherever you are you can keep up Magazine is digestible, lightweight and easy to read Really useful relevant information
Range of items - good variety and short articles allow reader to choose what they want to read. Diary/calendar of events Something physical for your membership Nothing Scannable Cross sector news What's not working? Layout and design
Not enough images/ graphics Not enough representation Full copy is available in pdf to non-members General criticism
How would you like to contribute to inCite in 2006? The success of success stories - what worked, what didn't
