Communication Kit
Here you can download RDA’s branding materials, logos, templates, and other materials to create communication assets on behalf of the RDA. For example, you may wish to so this if you are collaborating on an event with the RDA, producing a working document on our behalf (as part of an RDA Group) or showing your support for the organisation.
Full usage guidelines for the RDA Logo and other branding assets can be found here.
