 Libraries and other community partners are being offered the opportunity to participate on these  review panels. Panel participants commit to one full working day in Salem, with lunch and travel-related expenses reimbursed. This is a great opportunity for
 library staff, or to share with any of your patrons who are students and families, community members supporting schools, and others. See the complete description and application link below.  Feel free to reach out to Rachel Moser if you have any questions,
