[kids-lib] CSD Oct 25 Update!

[CSD Chair]

Happy Fall from CSD! Our 2025-26 team is excited to connect with you this
year. Here’s our October roundup of highlights for library staff serving
kids.

*Mock Pura Belpré* - Have you registered yet for REFORMA’s incredible
workshop
<https://www.reformaoregonchapter.org/meetings-events/oregon-mock-pura-belpr>
at
the Happy Valley Library on Saturday, October 18? In addition to the Mock
Pura Belpré, REFORMA is also hosting award-winning author Duncan Tonatiuh
to talk about his work.

*OLA/PNLA Proposals* - We’re looking for great youth-focused sessions for
this year’s joint OLA/PNLA Conference in April 2026. From intergenerational
programming to inclusive services, advocacy to partnerships, you can submit
your proposal now <https://oregonlibconference.org/2026/>. And think
outside the box (or library worker world!) - if you know a great community
partner who would like to present at OLA to share their expertise, send
their info to csd at olaweb.org and we’ll follow up!

*Save the Da**te *-  Monday, November 3, join the OLA Children's Services
Division <https://www.csdola.org/> for a fun afternoon focused on Summer
Reading!

*1-2 pm:* Get the sneak peek from iREADs, complete with artwork and
resources, as well as 2027 previews and the opportunity to offer input for
2028.
