[BERGQUIST Greta * SLO]

Hello everyone,

We made it to Friday, whew! A few great things in the Eugene/Springfield area this week: U of O celebrated Indigenous People's Day<https://blogs.uoregon.edu/scua/2024/09/20/indigenous-peoples-day-celebration-2024/> with an exhibition opening. Springfield offered middle schoolers a chance for fun community service<https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1019840753519031&id=100064793463308&mibextid=WC7FNe&rdid=0FPCfC99kwIAXKYf>, and gave new parents a chance to try out ways to wear their baby<https://www.facebook.com/springfieldpubliclibrary/posts/pfbid02uhuJoZApREb2mrpUJBPtMMmKqC2P5dJdFt5ezLiHd7kKMkB4AcLqGqaYq7QGrqecl>. (I don't know if you've ever tried to strap a squalling 8-week-old to your chest but if you have, you know it is very handy to practice with different options!)

Is your library doing awesome work like this with kids and families? (The correct answer is yes, you are!) The Chldrens' Services Division wants you to share about it - submit an idea today<https://forms.gle/y3PQ4Cz8SQRETVjN6>!

Have a great weekend, all.

Best, Greta
