International Plain Language Day - Oct. 13, 2012

This annual event celebrates clear, concise writing and other forms of communication.

After the success of the first International Plain Language Day on Oct. 13, 2011, organizers Cheryl Stephens and Kate Harrison Whiteside have added a virtual and interactive program this year. To help celebrate plain language, they are promoting events with location, contact information, and links at this website.

Also at this site, see abstracts for 2012 IPLDay virtual celebrations under the 2012 Online Program tab. Video and slide presentations will be online for all to use, share, and celebrate on Oct. 13, 2012.
