[R2R-OR] Friday, March 13th Shoutout

[BERGQUIST Greta * SLO]

Hi folks,
Well it's Friday the 13th and pouring buckets over here. We need the rain, but wow, am I ready for some sunshine! I want to highlight two great things from our southern Oregon friends in Klamath Falls:

  1.  The Ford Family Foundation granted funds to upgrade their AWE computer stations for kids: https://www.facebook.com/KlamathCountyLibrary/posts/pfbid0zrLfp32JeHrAT3uYCCPa6AnaSeANZXRQNAu9NmcobkbwAbznmF4RAKuEQd1GHH6il.<https://www.facebook.com/KlamathCountyLibrary/posts/pfbid0zrLfp32JeHrAT3uYCCPa6AnaSeANZXRQNAu9NmcobkbwAbznmF4RAKuEQd1GHH6il>
  2.  Klamath branches are currently hosting the Indigenous engineering traveling exhibit from University of Oregon's Museum of Natural and Cultural History that many of you have also had/will have sometime soon! https://www.heraldandnews.com/traveling-interactive-exhibit-highlights-indigenous-peoples-in-oregon/article_6df518e4-b8e0-4556-842c-eae5b9a6a04d.html.html<https://www.heraldandnews.com/traveling-interactive-exhibit-highlights-indigenous-peoples-in-oregon/article_6df518e4-b8e0-4556-842c-eae5b9a6a04d.html>
I also want to highlight the grace and resilience of Cornelius staff this week as they deal with another water leak: https://www.facebook.com/CorneliusLibrary/posts/pfbid0LpQKNAw7JnqenYrg6pEkQE28A4zBqiKsUnetXvFFegGTguQ5RKJNoeR2pqRE2mckl.<https://www.facebook.com/CorneliusLibrary/posts/pfbid0LpQKNAw7JnqenYrg6pEkQE28A4zBqiKsUnetXvFFegGTguQ5RKJNoeR2pqRE2mckl> We know many of you are located in imperfect buildings, and those building issues require patience, resources, and working with other folks' timelines to get fixed - thanks for doing that work so that your families can use library spaces! Have a great weekend.
Best, Greta
