To
keep the program running, instituting a minimal participation fee has become necessary. As additional funding is secured we will be able to provide copies of OBOB books to registered schools on a competitive needs basis.
There will be a participation charge of $25 for each school with a current OASL member working at that school. There will be a participation charge of $50 for each school without a current OASL, Oregon Association of School Libraries, member working at that school. The $25 or $50 registration fee permits participation in as many grade level divisions as appropriate for that school. </div><div><br></div><div>The OBOB 2010-2011 Grant will include<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; "> five copies of 12 of the 16 titles in the specific division your school applies for which means a total of 60 books for your school.
