Subject: CSLP is excited to announce...

On behalf of the [Collaborative Summer Library Program] CSLP Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to announce that Newbery Award winning author Kate DiCamillo will be the 2015-2016 National Summer Reading Champion!

Kate worked with Digital Media Foundry to create PSA spots that libraries can use to promote summer reading, libraries and library cards.  Links will be available shortly.

Kate will be available to visit libraries for the 2016 summer reading program and is excited to be part of your local programs.  More information will be discussed at the [CSLP] Annual Meeting in April.

We are thrilled that Kate not only supports the work of libraries but is lending her voice to raise awareness about summer reading, visiting your local library, getting a library card and sharing stories.

Sincerely,
Karen
