<p class="MsoNormal">Good afternoon!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am excited to announce a series of advocacy & action discussion groups are being planned for fall around the book
<i><a href="https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/library-workers-guide-to-saying-no-to-white-supremacy-work-culture-9781538193129/">A Library Worker’s Guide to Saying No to White Supremacy Culture</a></i> by Christina Fuller-Gregory. The structure and dates of these
discussion groups are still in the works, but we have about 100 copies of the book to distribute to Oregon library staff, volunteers, affiliates, and MLIS students in preparation.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you would like to receive a copy of this book by mail, please fill out this brief
<a href="https://forms.gle/SgyJoEHsZgv9yZAz8">Google Form</a> by Tuesday, May 19. More details about eligibility and requests are available via the form link, as well. The first 100 eligible submissions will have a copy mailed out to the address provided shortly
after this deadline. If book requests exceed the 100 copies, the form will be disabled and/or any requests that came in after this limit will be notified that all copies have been claimed. If additional copies are still available, I will send out another email
in late May. <o:p></o:p></p>
