<a href="https://www.fil.com.mx/ingles/info/info_fil.asp">Guadalajara Book Fair</a> annually on behalf of a cooperative of Oregon libraries, to buy culturally appropriate books for their collections and communities. Participating libraries only need to contribute
$300 toward travel costs, in addition to money for materials from their selection budget. Participating libraries will plan three outreach or other activities to connect new books with their communities. Programming ideas are available on our website!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
