[Or-srp] iREAD $250 coupon codes

[BERGQUIST Greta E * SLO]

Hi everybody,

LaVonne is right, I think the question is about the $250 coupon codes for iREAD we gave to our smallest and most rural libraries last year – I started e-mailing those codes out today but I apologize, everyone gets an individualized code, and I can’t type fast enough even though I’m mostly copying and pasting – if you didn’t get an e-mail with a code from me today, you will tomorrow! Thanks for your patience with this process!


Best,
Greta

I think she is referring to the mini-grant awarded in December 2021 and 2022 to the smallest and most rural Oregon libraries.

Quote from last year’s email: “The State Library is funding our 50 smallest and most rural libraries to receive a mini-grant of $250 worth of 2023 Summer Reading supplies and materials from the iREADS store. Recipients include the 50 Oregon libraries allocated the minimum Ready to Read grant amount and/or libraries with fewer than 2.0 full-time employees.”

It’s possible that they weren’t able to offer this very helpful grant to us this year.

Hello there,

According to the preliminary 2024 grant data<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/ld.php?content_id=72446296>, it looks like both Iola and Siletz are receiving $1,000 for this year’s grant cycle. I’m not sure whether the checks have gone out yet since the funds distribution date<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/readytoreadgrant> is December 31. I hope this helps.

Best wishes,

Jessica R. Marie

We are ordering supplies from iRead and need to know if we can expect a grant from the State for supplies this year.  I believe that it was $250 last year and that we received it in December.  Thanks for your help.
