<p class="style10"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">This year marks the centennial of the birth of Oregon poet William Stafford (1914-1993). The National Book Award winning author served as the Oregon Poet Laureate under three governors from 1975

since 1979. The State Library is also hosting the exhibit “<a href="http://www.oregon.gov/osl/Pages/ExhibitOnDisplay.aspx">Remembering William Stafford</a>,” featuring books from the Oregon Poetry Collection, poetry broadsides, and photographs of Stafford.
The exhibit will be on display until December 2014.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

Oregon State Library, Oregon Library Association, and Oregon College Savings Plan (OCSP) partner annually on the summer reading sweepstakes; this year called Fizz Boom Save. There are two changes: 1) the prize for youth was reduced from a $1,000 to a $529
Oregon College Savings Plan, and 2) the entry forms are now available in Spanish. Library directors received instructions for ordering Spanish entry forms in March. In the future, libraries will order the Spanish entry forms via the summer reading statistics
and ordering survey just like the other sweepstakes material, summer reading certificates, and summer reading manuals are ordered.
<br>
<br>
In conjunction with the Fizz Boom Save, OCSP will again be sponsoring one free performer for libraries serving fewer than 10,000 people and a media partnership with KATU to promote summer reading at public libraries and Fizz Boom Save. This year 53% of Oregon
public libraries are eligible to receive a free performer. Library directors received the information they need to book their free performer in March. OCSP supports these summer reading activities because they benefit more youth beyond the 15 sweepstakes winners
and their priority is to work with local libraries to provide youth with the experiences they need to get on and stay on the road to college.
