[R2R-OR] Summer reading resource: Collection development

[Katie Anderson]

There are a lot of people new to the Ready to Read grant this year so I'm taking the opportunity to remind everyone about allowable summer reading collection development projects.

The Ready to Read grant can be spent on library materials related to the current summer reading theme (music is the theme for 2018), materials from the resource lists in the 2018 summer reading manual (your library should receive it in November 2018), and the following professionally developed summer reading book lists and children's literacy initiatives. Remember, you may only purchase materials for 0-14 year olds.

*         Association for Library Services to Children summer reading lists<http://www.ala.org/alsc/publications-resources/book-lists/>

*         Beverly Cleary Children's Choice Award<https://ola.memberclicks.net/bccca-nominees>

If you find another professionally developed summer reading list or Oregon literacy initiative you think should be allowable, please let me know!
