[kids-lib] ORCA is looking for new committee members!

[MacKenzie Ross]

Hello! The Oregon Reader's Choice Award Committee is looking for new members, including 3 ORA members, 2 CSD members, and 1 OYAN member. Members on this committee have the opportunity to focus their reading on a specific division (grades 3-5, 6-8, or 9-12), decide on the final list of 8 books in their division, create booktalks, potentially co-present at the spring Oregon Library Association Conference, and get to know other people around Oregon who are just as passionate about getting great books into the hands of kids and teens!

One of the great things about being an ORCA committee member is that members are not required to attend any in-person meetings--all of our discussions are through Google docs. However, something to be aware of is that we do a lot of reading, and the reading, online discussions, and preparing for the OLA presentation can make it really busy from February through April.

If you have any questions, shoot me an email at orca at olaweb.org. If you are interested in being an ORCA Committee member, please email me at the above email address by Friday, August 31 with answers to the following questions:

1) Why do you want to be a member of the Oregon Reader's Choice Award Committee?
2) Do you currently, or have you in the past, served on a book award committee? If yes, please briefly describe your experience.
3) There are 3 divisions that members read for: grades 3-5, 6-8, or 9-12. Please list your top 2 division choices that you would prefer to read for.
4) Are you a member of the Oregon Reading Association, OLA - Children's Services Division (CSD), or OLA - Oregon Young Adult Network (OYAN)? Please specify which one(s) you are a member of.
