Introducing our new logo! 

According to The Random House College Dictionary, shield means “a person or
thing that protects.” We as reporters are charged with shielding or protecting one of the
most important aspects of our legal system: the record. Building on this definition,
OCRA is pleased to announce that we have adopted a new logo.
As long as you remain a current OCRA member, you are entitled to use the logo
on letterhead, business cards, etc.  We hope you like the new design and feel that it
accurately exemplifies our profession.

Just right-click on the logo and save to your computer.
