<p class="MsoNormal">Reminder: Many small, rural libraries are not getting useful information about professional development opportunities and resources that is being shared on other listservs. Therefore I’ve decide to forward items that are relevant to improving
early literacy for 0-6 year olds and summer reading for 0-14 year olds on the Ready to Read grant listserv. I will be very selective about what I share on this list to ensure they all relate to the purposes of the Ready to Read grant and so you aren't overwhelmed
with too many emails.<o:p></o:p></p>
