<p class="MsoNormal">The REFORMA Oregon Chapter is organizing the 2nd Mock Pura Belpré Awards’ event which will take place on Saturday, December 10th from 10 to 4 at the Lebanon Public Library, 55 Academy Street, Lebanon, OR 97355.
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We are looking forward to seeing you for this educational experience. In the morning we will have a panel presentation, “Your Patrons Need Diverse Books: Developing Latinx-Inclusive Library Collections,” by Elena Gleason, from Coos Bay
Public Library, Katy Bogart from Garden Home Community Library and Lora Worden, from Catlin Gabel School in Portland.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The presentation will be followed by the selection of those titles which we consider outstanding in terms of text and illustrations.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the next month or so, we will send more information, the criteria for selection, and the list of suggested titles.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the meantime, enjoy the rest of the summer and the beginning of the fall. Thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
