<p class="MsoNormal">Is there someone or <i>someones</i> at your library providing exceptional service to the teens in your community?<br>
<br>
It’s time to start thinking about the <a href="goog_1853779470"> </a><a href="http://www.olaweb.org/mc/page.do?sitePageId=124465"><b>2013 OYAN You're Excellent Award!</b></a>. If you know someone that has made a difference for teens, we want to hear about
it. The <i>OYEA!</i> may be awarded to an <b>individual, library, organization, program, or initiative</b> that has made a positive and significant contribution to teens in libraries in the state of Oregon. The honoree will receive an engraved plaque and
a $100 donation to the teen service program of their choice. If needed, funds are available to ensure that the honoree attends the 2013 OLA Annual Conference to receive the acknowledgement of their peers.

If you have nominated someone in the past who has not been the recipient of the <i>
OYEA!</i> , we highly encourage you to make that nomination again this year.<o:p></o:p></p>
