Hi all,

This is your final reminder that the deadline for signing up for this
year's Mock Caldecott is today, Wednesday, January 7!   For those of you
who are already registered, some vital info:

1.  The library is located at 585 Liberty St SE. Here is a link for
directions:
http://www.cityofsalem.net/Departments/Library/About%20Us/Pages/CentralLibrary.aspx

2.  The library parking deck required $.50 per hour (quarters only) and
is checked throughout the day by Parking Services.  If ticketed for an
expired meter, there is nothing that anyone at the library can to do
help, so please plan to bring quarters with you.  You can put up to 10
hours on a meter inside the parking deck.  Once the library opens at 10
a.m., there is a change machine located inside the Main front doors.

3.  The program will be held in the Anderson Room, which is on the
bottom floor (Plaza Level).  Folks coming to the program, which begins
at 9:30 a.m., will need to take the sidewalk halfway around the building
to enter through the set of two double doors on the Plaza Level. 
Coffee, tea, and nibbles will be available about 9:00 a.m. in the
Anderson Room.
