<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.coveroregon.com/">Cover Oregon</a> is Oregon’s new health insurance exchange, and is part of the federal Affordable Care Act. This new online marketplace will help Oregonians compare and enroll in health and dental coverage
that fits their needs and budget. More Oregonians will be able to get health coverage, even if they already have a health condition, and access financial help. Cover Oregon will be rolling out on October 1, 2013.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am happy to announce that Cover Oregon will provide libraries the ability to order promotional products (brochures, bookmarks, etc.) from their web site. The Oregon State Library has been asked to provide a list of library contacts for
Cover Oregon to use as they set up accounts. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We will provide the <b>contact information for public and tribal library directors</b> unless you want to appoint someone else from your library to serve as a contact.<b> If you want to appoint an alternative contact, please fill out the
form linked below by August 23, 2013. </b>There is no need to fill out the form unless you want to provide an alternative contact.
