[kids-lib] A note of gratitude if you need it

[CSD Chair]

I went to visit the LGBT teen group across the street from the library with
cookies on Wednesday. I also brought along these "Rainbow LGBT YA"
bookmarks that I whipped up to pass out to the teens. In case anyone would
like to borrow the bookmarks or the template, I've attached Publisher and
PDF files. Feel free to modify as needed for your community.
