Free 2010 iREAD Resource Guide for All Illinois Public Libraries: Your Help Is Requested
|
 ILA is delighted to announce that the 2010 iREAD Resource Guide and CD will be distributed free to all Illinois public libraries in October 2009. The Resource Guide will be produced and distributed free with funds from the 2009 Barack Obama Commemorative License Plate sales.
ILA would like to distribute the Resource Guide to the correct person in your library's youth services department. Please check this list and submit any corrections to kristy@ila.org, with the subject line item 2010 iREAD. The libraries appear alphabetically in the list.
The 2010 iREAD Catalog will be included in the October 2009 ILA Reporter. In the fall, if you want to order additional copies of the 2010 iREAD Resource Guide, the cost is $25 and orders may be placed on the ILA Web site or by mail or fax.
