<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Greetings from the Oregon Library Presenters Directory Committee--</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">This is a call for recommendations!</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">[Cue the confetti and balloons.]</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">We are close to launching an online Oregon Library Presenters Directory populated with performers, workshop presenters, and other programs catering to libraries and we call upon the
Oregon library community to help us populate this directory with recommended presenters.</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Have someone in mind? Interested to know when you will be able to access the directory? Read on!</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Best of all, and unlike the former Performers Showcase, this directory will be for all audiences. The website will have a portal for library staff to search and browse lists of presenters
and performers, and another portal for performers to submit their information and recorded example of their program.</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Here’s what to do:</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">· Spread the word to presenters you recommend so they can add themselves to the directory.</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">· Share with colleagues you know who work with presenters.</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">· Give them this <a href="https://tinyurl.com/bdfy7jv5" id="LPNoLPOWALinkPreview">https://tinyurl.com/bdfy7jv5</a></span></p>
<div class="_Entity _EType_OWALinkPreview _EId_OWALinkPreview _EReadonly_1"></div>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">· Let them know it’s free and will be shared with all libraries in Oregon.</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">· Repeat!</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">We are looking for workshops, musicians, performers, and presenters for babies, kids, teens, adults, parents, etc. The sooner we get a critical mass of submissions, the sooner the directory
will go live. We will send out a notice to Kids-Lib and Libs-Or letting everyone know it’s ready to use.</span></p>

<p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Thanks for your contributions to this directory!</span></p>

<p style=""><font face="Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">After months of collaborating, brainstorming, and creating the
</span><span style="font-size: 14.6667px;">infrastructure</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">, we are excited to populate the directory together and share it widely very soon.</span></font></p>
