<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Reformistas!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ll be promoting this more widely across the Oregon library community later this week, but it would be *<b>awesome</b>* to have some overlap between REFORMA Oregon and the Oregon LSTA Advisory Council starting in 2021! We are looking
to fill the following positions on the 13-member council:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><![if !supportLists]><span style="font-family:Symbol"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>About the LSTA Advisory Council:<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Each year, the State Library seeks new council members to serve a 3-year volunteer term to help advise us on our
<a href="https://www.oregon.gov/library/libraries/Pages/LSTA.aspx">Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) Program</a>. The LSTA Program is federally funded by the IMLS, and with the exception of Ready to Read grants to public libraries, it essentially encompasses
all of the work of my division (Library Support & Development) at the State Library (including Competitive Grants, consulting services, statistics, Statewide Projects like Answerland, Statewide Databases, etc.). We’ll be coordinating an evaluation of the LSTA
program later in 2021, and the incoming Council members will play a role in helping shape the next LSTA 5-Year Plan (for FFY 2023-2027).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’ve recently transitioned to convening the council virtually over Zoom, and we’ll aim to have 3-4 meetings a year (one of which may be an in-person meeting eventually, when it is safe to do so). If you have any questions, please reach
out to me!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Many thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
