<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Since 2017, Libros for Oregon has provided group purchasing of Spanish-language library materials for cohorts of libraries by sending a small team of librarians to the
</span>FIL<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> in Guadalajara. However, due to instability in funding and increased shipping costs, we have made the difficult decision to pause group purchasing for 2025.

<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:17.75pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">But have no fear! Our robust website has many supports for libraries seeking to improve their Spanish collections--including where to purchase materials, support for individuals who are attending
the </span>FIL<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">, and assistance in cataloging and record creation. Please reach out if you have any questions, and visit

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">*If your school or library offers professional development funds or has support for you to attend the FIL, it is an incredible resource for your Spanish-speaking patrons and readers! ALA continues
to offer the "Free Pass," which offers financial support for librarians who wish to attend. I highly recommend it if you are able, and I encourage you to contact me with questions.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
