Ready for Oregon Reads 2009; Resources for Librarians

 With the 
selection of Stubborn Twig, Bat 6 and Apples to Oregon, Oregon  Reads 2009 
will no doubt increase public awareness of the Japanese American  Internment 

during World War II.  With this increase, it is safe to  assume there 
will be more internment related reference questions and excited  patrons 
looking for more to read.

The program will be held on  February 6th 
from 10:30am-2:30pm at the Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center in  Portland.


10:30am - 10:45am: Welcome and introduction to the Oregon  Nikkei Legacy 
Center.

10:45am - 11:15am: Individuals will share  stories from their 
time at an internment camp.

11:15am - noon: Patti  Sakurai will give 
a brief overview on the history of the Japanese American  internment.


Noon - 12:45pm: Nicole Bouche will share information on  special 
collections/exhibits at the University of Washington.

There  will be 
a 30 minute break for lunch.  Please bring your own sack  lunch.  
Some refreshments will be provided.

1:15pm - 2:00pm:  Tour of the 
Nikkei Legacy Center.

A drawing will be held for Ansel  Adams' book; 
Free and Equal: The Story of Loyal Japanese Americans.

 Cost for OLA 
RRT members will be $27.  The fee for nonmembers will be  $37.  
Space will be limited to 30 participants.
