Photo Contest Winner Announced!

Congratulations goes to the Carver Public Library who submitted their photos for the Picturing Space Contest. Carver has won the 16 inch inflatable Earth Globe, in time to celebrate Space and before we even launch into our 2010 Go Green at Your Library summer theme. And many thanks goes out to all the others who submitted! You're welcome to send others along the way still. We thoroughly enjoy seeing your photos.

And speaking of photos, we thought the best photo appeared in last week's Enterprise announcing some of the activities that our libraries are doing to promote our theme as seen in this photo featuring the West Bridgewater Public Library. I hope you are enjoying your summer as much as the kids are. I can't wait to hear about your 'space travels' this fall!

Far Out [Library] Earth Pads!

Libraries across the southeast are going out all out in celebrating this summer's theme. Check them out at SEMLS' Flickr account. While we are never in competition with one another, the winner of our random prize drawing will receive a cool glow-in- the-dark globe. The winning library will receive notice on July 21st but from all appearances, it looks like the families have library participants won several programs back already.

Thanks to all who submitted and good luck!
