<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">Hi library people!</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">I feel like I'm caught up in some kind of crazy timewarp.. only one month to the CSD Fall Workshop?! Unbelievable!</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">I'm sending out this email because one of the original reminders contained a faulty link (for some reason, Outlook likes to mess up linkable text when I cut-and-paste). At any rate, here is the address of the CSD webpage (from where you will find a link to the Workshop): </FONT><A href="http://www.olaweb.org/mc/page.do?sitePageId=61033"><U><FONT color="#0000FF" size=2 face="Arial">http://www.olaweb.org/mc/page.do?sitePageId=61033</FONT></U></A></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">If that doesn't work, find the CSD webpage by visiting </FONT><A><U><FONT color="#0000FF" size=2 face="Arial">www.olaweb.org</FONT></U></A><FONT size=2 face="Arial"> and clicking on "OLA Units" on the upper right of the screen.. then follow the link to "Children's Services" in the center of the screen.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">Can't wait to see everybody in a month! Here's the text from the previous email sent out around the middle of September (and I apologize for cross-posting!):</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">The CSD Workshop is taking place at the </FONT><FONT color="#008000" size=2 face="Arial">Beaverton City Library</FONT> <FONT size=2 face="Arial">on </FONT><FONT color="#FF0000" size=2 face="Arial">Saturday November 7th</FONT><FONT size=2 face="Arial">. There is a $20 registration fee, which gets you morning coffee, a delicious lunch, and snacks! All in all, it promises to be a great time. We're mixing things up a little this go-around, focusing on the school-age audience. With Reading for Healthy Families kicking into full-swing and energizing the early literacy scene around the State, we thought it might be a good opportunity to spend some time with the kids as they grow up.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">Nancy Sullivan, founding member of Fund Our Future Oregon (a local group dedicated to creating strong school libraries for every child in Oregon), will be presenting on School & Public Library Collaborations. This is your chance to get the inside scoop on how to best form partnerships with your school library counterparts! Get ready to make the dream a reality!</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">Last year we shared storytime ideas. This year, we're sharing school-age program ideas. Send me your basic plan or write-up and I will work everything into a nice & neat handout.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">2010 Summer Reading Club manuals will be distributed after the morning workshop. And we will be hosting our annual Silent Auction (bring something fun to auction off & come prepared with cash or check to buy, buy, buy.. watch out for the white elephant!)</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2 face="Arial">I can't wait to see everybody!</FONT>
