During the 3 days at the library, the students will be divided into groups of 3. Each group will rotate between structured tech lab time, tutor/mentor/study time, and an enrichment time. The enrichment time will be different depending on the day of the week, but will include a range of activities led by community partners including health/wellness, art, science/nature, personal finance, etc. The grant allows the library to provide snacks, transportation, and dedicated paid staff to run the program.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6'>They might be the first public library to be a direct recipient of 21<sup>st</sup> Century Community Learning Center grant funds. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6'>Here’s to a successful program! </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E75B6'>Jen</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#2E74B5'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:5.0pt'><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:black'>Jen Maurer, MLS </span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'> <br></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>School Library Consultant<br></span><span style='color:#2E74B5'><a href="mailto:jennifer.maurer@state.or.us"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>jennifer.maurer@state.or.us</span></a></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'> | 503-378-5011 | </span><span style='color:#2E74B5'><a href="http://www.oregon.gov/osl/ld"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>www.oregon.gov/osl/ld</span></a></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'> <br>Follow us: </span><span style='color:#2E74B5'><a href="http://fb.me/orlibsupport"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>Facebook</span></a></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'> | </span><span style='color:#2E74B5'><a href="https://twitter.com/ORLibSupport"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>Twitter</span></a></span><b><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'> </span></b><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>| </span><span style='color:#2E74B5'><a href="http://www.statelibraryor.tumblr.com/"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>Tumblr</span></a></span><b><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'> </span></b><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>|<b> </b></span><span style='color:#2E74B5'><a href="https://pinterest.com/statelibraryor/"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:black'>Pinterest</span></a></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#2E74B5'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:blue'><img border=0 width=458 height=60 id="_x0000_i1029" src="cid:image001.png@01D412E0.1A496960" alt="cid:image001.png@01D348CF.6A72E0A0"></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
