The certificates will be available for free in English and Spanish to download and print via the Oregon summer reading web page<http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/oregon.srp.certificate.shtml> in June.  An email will be sent out on this list to let you know when they are available online.

If you prefer hardcopies (which are also free!), here is the ordering information:

*         Public librarians already ordered these certificates in November when they took the summer reading survey.  If you have any questions about your order, please email me at katie.anderson at state.or.us<mailto:katie.anderson at state.or.us>.

*         School librarians and teachers may now order hardcopies of these certificates online at: http://library.state.or.us/services/surveys/survey.php?sid=944.  You must place your order by Monday, April 11th.

Teachers, reading specialists, and school librarians may present Oregon Summer Reading certificates to students who read or listen to 10 books over the summer.  Children and teens may also get certificates at their public library by completing the library's summer reading program or providing the library with a list of the 10 books they read.

The 2011 Summer Reading Program theme is travel/world culture, the children's slogan is "One World, Many Stories", and the teen slogan is "You Are Here".  The children's summer reading art designed by Rafael Lopez and teen art by Svetlana Chmakova is used on these certificate with permission through Oregon public libraries' memberships to the Collaborative Summer Library Program.  The Oregon Summer Reading Certificates are made available to libraries, schools, and teachers at no cost thanks to a collaboration between the Oregon State Library, Oregon Department of Education, and Oregon Library Association and is funded by a generous donation from the Oregon Education Association.

A special 'THANK YOU' goes out to the librarians who designed the winning certificates.  You did a wonderful job!

Enjoy,
Katie Anderson

Attention Oregon school and public librarians!
It is time to vote to select the children's and teen 2011 summer reading certificates.

To view the 2011 mock-ups online go to:  http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/oregon.srp.certificate.shtml#VOTE_for_the_2011_Certificates . If this link does not work, try to cut and paste it in your browser.

HOW TO VOTE:
Please send an email with the subject heading "Oregon Summer Reading Certificate" to Katie Anderson (katie.anderson at state.or.us<mailto:katie.anderson at state.or.us>) by the end of the day March 22, 2011. The body of your email should include the number and title of one children's mock-up and one teen mock-up you would like printed and made available this summer.

The winning certificates will be announced at the end of March via an email sent out on the kids-lib, OYAN, and OASL listservs.

The winning certificates will be available in English and Spanish to download and print from this website.  If you want hard copies, please read the following for details:

PUBLIC LIBRARIES:  You already ordered hard copies of the 2011 summer reading certificates when you completed the 2010 Summer Reading Survey in November.  Certificates will be shipped to you at the end of May.

SCHOOL LIBRARIES: The email announcing the winning certificates will also include link to an online survey for online ordering of hard copies of the certificates.  Please start thinking now about how many children's certificates in English and Spanish and how many teen certificates in English and Spanish you will need so you are prepared when online ordering is available later this month.  Remember, these certificates are FREE!
In 2007 the Oregon Department of Education, Oregon State Library, and Oregon Library Association coordinated their efforts to create a joint Oregon Summer Reading Certificate with funding from the Oregon Education Association. The joint certificate has the national Collaborative Summer Library Program<http://www.cslpreads.org/> artwork on it and is signed by the State Librarian and the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. This effort signifies the commitment of schools and libraries to the education of Oregon's youth.

Thank you to the librarians who designed these certificates.  Regardless of which certificates win, you all did a wonderful job.
