When I read the headline, I was thinking "Wow, did the Gold Ink Awards create a new category for 'Best Industry Association'?"

The program at DSCOOP5 was amazing. I remember opening it to the labels page and thinking, "Wow", and then right at that moment realizing the great production values of the whole piece, and flipping back and feeling the cover with the Scodix treatment. I didn't find out it was Scodix until later; until then, I had thought it was something super custom-- non-digital. An outstanding book, it's going to be hard to raise the bar on that for DSCOOP7 next March!

Congratulations to all involved, well deserved.

As a major fan of Dscoop, I just wanted to post a Congratulations message as well. This is absolutely some well-deserved recognition for a tremendous association.
