<DIV></DIV><BR>Attention Oregon school and public librarians!<BR><BR>For the
past 3 years the State Library and Department of Education have provided Oregon
Summer Reading Certificates to libraries in Oregon. In the past, I took three or
four mock-up certificates to the Spring OLA Children Services Division meeting
at which librarians voted to select the one mock-up certificate they wanted to
be printed and made available to download. Two things have changed this
year: 1) voting will take place via email, allowing both public and school
librarians to vote, and 2) this year the State will provide both a children's
Make a Splash and a teen Make Waves certificate!<BR><BR>To view the 2010
mock-ups online: <A
href="http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/oregon.srp.certificate.shtml#VOTE_for_the_2010_Certificates%20">http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/oregon.srp.certificate.shtml#VOTE_for_the_2010_Certificates</A>
If this link does not work, try to cut and paste it in your browser. <BR><BR>To
vote: Please send an email with the subject heading “Oregon Summer Reading
Certificate” to Katie Anderson (<A
href="mailto:katie.anderson@state.or.us">katie.anderson@state.or.us</A>) by the
end of the day <STRONG style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0)">April 18, 2010</STRONG>.
The body of your email should include the title of one children’s mock-up and
one teen mock-up you would like printed and made available this summer.
<BR><BR>The winning certificates will be announced the week of April 19- 23,
2010 via an email sent out on the kids-lib, OYAN, and OASL listservs.
The announcement email will also include link and URL for online ordering
of hard copies of the the certificates. Please start thinking now about
how many children's certificates in English and Spanish, and how many teen
certificates in English and Spanish you will need so you are prepared when
online ordering is available later this month. Remember, these
certificates are FREE! <BR><BR>In 2007 the Oregon Department of Education,
Oregon State Library, and Oregon Library Association coordinated their efforts
to create a joint Oregon Summer Reading Certificate with funding from the
Oregon Education Association. The joint certificate has the
national <A href="http://www.cslpreads.org/">Collaborative Summer Library
Program</A> artwork on it and is signed by the State Librarian and the
State Superintendent of Public Instruction. This effort signifies the commitment
of schools and libraries to the education of Oregon’s youth.<BR><BR>Please let
me know if you have any questions.<BR><BR>Thank you,<BR>Katie<BR>
