<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>These are exactly the things that your state representative
(Katie Anderson)and Summer Reading Chair need to know when bring our concerns
to the national CSLP conference. While there was not much discussion this year
at the meeting regarding copyright issues and reading logs, perhaps that was
because many of the State representatives were unaware of how many libraries
prefer to create their own reading logs and/or certificates using the CSLP
artwork. This definitely sounds like something that will be brought for
discussion by your <st1:State w:st="on">Oregon</st1:State> representatives at
this next year’s meeting and is exactly the kind of feedback we need to have
for representing <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oregon</st1:place></st1:State>
at the CSLP national meetings. The past years that I have attended, Oregon
representatives have successfully lobbied for the themes, slogans, and other items
of interest that Oregon librarians have expressed as being their top concerns
so please know that your voices are being heard and that your state
representative (Katie Anderson) and Summer Reading Chair are definitely working
hard to make sure that Oregon is well represented. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

issues, you are always able to volunteer for one of the CSD board positions

position that attends the annual Collaborative Summer Library Programs meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
