Abstract

Have you ever wondered how to make boring information paper leaflets more interesting? Have you ever wanted to create an interesting seminar invitation card in order to catch an academician´s at­tention? Would you like to know how to solve the problem with sending of PF in case the librarians are too self-critical and lacking self-confidence to publish their group photo? We have tried to approach this challenge with help of short comic drawings made by the Stripgenerator application. Stripgenerator.com is a website where after registering, you can create not only strips (short comic strips mostly black and white) but also fully valued comics. There is nothing easier; for making such strips it is necessary to use your imagination only. The rest is just a matter of a good idea.
