The shirts have been ordered. There is a three-day turnaround, but I am hoping they will be ready Wednesday, May 23. I will be mailing them first class after I pick them up. The company is here in OKC. If you want to pick your order up here at ODL instead of waiting for the mail, let me know.

Thank you for your patience.

The teen manual is online now. I did the same with it as with the children’s by having it in it’s entirety, and splitting it in half. Hopefully, this helps with downloads.

I’ve uploaded on the CYA: Children’s and Young Adult web site the 2007 Children’s Manual. It includes news release information, a list of past and future summer reading program slogans and the link to the end-of-summer evaluation and materials request form in SurveyMonkey.

I have put the manual in pdf format. There is one that is the entire manual, which is 117 pages. I also broke the manual in half, so there is just the news release information (47 pages) and bibliographies and programs (68 pages). Hopefully, that will make it easier to download and print.

The teen manual will be up very soon.

• Folks–
• Meet the Summer Reading Artist at OLA!
• The artist for this year’s Oklahoma Summer Reading program, Kandy Radzinski, will be at the ODL booth (2nd Floor lobby of the Cox Center near the OLA booths) signing free copies of the Summer Reading poster.
  Kandy will also have copies of her Oklahoma Book Award-winning work, “S is for Sooner,” a perfect title for the Centennial.
• Kandy will be at the ODL booth, 1:30 to 3:30 on Tuesday, April 3. Please plan to stop by at this time and get a free, signed poster, and pick up a copy of “S is for Sooner” while you’re there!
• ( Oh! And check out the poster at this link:
