Hello folks,

I hope you are not sweltering too much in the heat! Thanks for all your efforts to be cooling centers<https://www.hermistonherald.com/news/local/morrow-county-libraries-offering-cooling-stations/article_80efaa16-3d1f-11ee-aab3-73e968841622.html> for your neighbors. This week, I want to highlight the awesome profile<https://www.forestgrovenewstimes.com/special_sections/amazing-neighbor-fostering-unity-learning-at-the-library/article_33a00c42-2cc1-11ee-a837-b30d2a334411.html> on Cornelius Youth Services Librarian Maria Aguilar, reminding us libraries are for everyone. And to shoutout something that wasn't in the news - Curry County Library is handing out bagged lunches until school starts as the school district stopped serving meals August 10th and there's not a great option for kids to access food elsewhere. Speaking of school, Aloha is helping families get ready with school supplies<https://www.facebook.com/AlohaLibrary/posts/pfbid02PEYCtdmpGFE4QfqSFX5SToQDthhYjwyrVNRu3rQiQN6iiPYWUogPXhb7N2XUgBUql>. Thank you all for your work to meet community needs as they arise - I was asked this week what Oregon library was inspiring me at the moment, and I had to name like 7 of you - there are so many of you showing up day in, day out, and that's what matters! I hope you can stay cool this weekend and take a break.

Best,
Greta
