Hello! Many of you may remember that the US Postal Service created and sold bug stickers last year that tied in with the Summer Reading Program. This year the US Postal Service has created a line of Be Creative and Express Yourself products. You can view their catalog at: <span style="font-size: 10pt;"><a href="http://www.postalproducts.com/">www.postalproducts.com</a>. The letter below describes specific products public library may be particularly interested in.<br><br>FYI: The Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) is fully aware of this project. One CSLP member consults with Adam Meitz from the US Postal Services to ensure that there are no copyright infringements. If you have any questions or concerns please let me know and I will share them with CSLP. <br></span><br><div style="text-align: center;"> Katie Anderson, Library Development Services<br>* Youth Services Consultant * Oregon Center for the Book Coordinator *<br> Oregon State Library, 250 Winter St. NE, Salem, OR 97301<br> katie.anderson@state.or.us, 503-378-2528<br></div><br><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11"><meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 11"><link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CKatie%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">We
are especially happy to offer custom rubber stamps, personalized with your
library’s name. Postal Products Unlimited, Inc. has an official license with
the United States Postal Service. This license enables us to use the phenomenal
artwork found on postage stamps to enhance our products, giving you a mature
and educational product line for your summer program. In addition, Postal
Products is committed to helping libraries reduce their carbon footprint by
offering a selection of “Green” items to support summer reading at your
library. Embroidered organic caps, recycled book-bags for the circulation desk,
all-natural sketch journals for the incentive program – every little bit helps!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style=""> </span>Also, we are offering a revolutionary new product:
The Easy Tack Board. These boards are designed to replace your old Flannel
Boards for story time. Made from a special self-adhesive fabric, anything will
stick to theses boards and come right off without leaving any residue. No
longer do librarians have to attach flannel, Velcro, magnets or tape to
pictures. Items will stay in place until you remove them, making changes quick and
easy. If the board becomes dirty, simple was with soap and water to restore
tackiness! On <a href="http://www.postalproducts.com/">www.postalproducts.com</a>
simply click on the Easy Tack button to the left of the banner.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style=""> </span>As always, ordering through Postal Products Unlimited,
Inc. is quick and easy. Each catalog has a printed order form in the back.
Libraries can call our main number anytime to place an order, and we also
accept faxed and emailed orders as well. Or feel free to order online at <a href="http://www.postalproducts.com/">www.postalproducts.com</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style=""> </span>Finally, feel free to call me any time with questions,
concerns, or to request special pricing on quantity purchases. If you would
like to request samples of our educational poster series for your workshops
feel free to call me to request them. Call if you require additional hard-copy
catalogs, and we will be happy to mail them out to you. I look forward to the
opportunity to enhance your Summer Reading Program! <o:p></o:p></span></p>
