The Oregon State Library, Oregon Library Association, and Oregon Public Broadcasting have partnered to put together some resources to help public libraries celebrate! State Library staff are putting the birthday boxes in the mail today and tomorrow. You should receive your birthday box by the end of this week or early next week (one box per library). The birthday box includes: * Cover letter * Information about an Instagram contest for you and your patrons * Bookmarks with new, original art created by Ramona illustrator Tracy Dockray * DVD of the OPB's Oregon Art Beat episode "Discovering Beverly Cleary" which will air on OPB TV April 7th and 9th * Balloons: 3 that say "Happy Birthday Beverly Cleary" and 2 plain balloons You are receiving a birthday box because of a generous donation from OPB. If you want to thank them for the "Discovering Beverly Cleary" DVD, balloons, and original art on the bookmark, they would probably appreciate hearing a very brief description of how your community responded to viewing the "Discovering Beverly Cleary" DVD. Their address is OPB, 7140 SW Macadam Avenue, Portland, OR 97219. Visit OPB's Discovering Beverly Cleary webpage and the Oregon Library Association's 100 Years of Beverly Cleary webpage for resources and activity ideas. I'll let you know ASAP if/when the template is available for you to print more bookmarks. There are copyright issues due to the new, original art on the bookmark that we're trying to sort out.

Efforts will be made to keep a balance of representation from both type of library and geographic region. Based on current membership, special consideration will be given to nominees from school, community college, and tribal libraries as well as those libraries from rural communities and from the eastern side of the state. Nominations are being accepted online at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/3L8LD9L. The deadline for nominations is Friday, April 29, 2016, 5:00 pm. For more information, please read further. About Answerland and the AAC Answerland is Oregon's statewide virtual reference service. The oversight of Answerland was transitioned from Multnomah County Library to the State Library on July 1, 2015. As part of the process, Answerland's former Advisory Board is being reformed as the Answerland Advisory Committee under the State Library's LSTA Council. The State Library wishes the AAC to continue in the role of advising on the development, implementation, promotion and evaluation of Answerland. The ultimate vision is to create, maintain and continually improve a high-quality online reference program that succeeds in serving the needs of all residents of Oregon. About Serving on the AAC The State Library seeks representatives with experience and/or interest in virtual reference and collaborative library services, as well as a desire to reinvigorate and grow the Answerland program. Initial terms begin July 1 2016, and can run for one, two, or three years (terms will be staggered to ensure the continuity of future membership). Efforts will be made to keep a balance of representation from both type of library and geographic region. Based on current membership, special consideration will be given to nominees from school, community college, and tribal libraries. Process and Timeline for Nominations The deadline for nominations is Friday April 29, 5:00 pm. Self-nominations are encouraged. If you know someone who may be interested, please pass along this message.
