Folks–
First Book is holding a contest where one state will receive 50,000 books for at-risk children. Oklahoma’s literacy community is trying to win the contest, and Oklahoma is currently in the lead. But we have to keep our lead through July. I thought Oklahoma libraries would also like to join in the fun and effort.
To help, all you have to do is log onto the site provided below and “vote” for your favorite childhood book. You can vote one time each day through July 31.

Remember to vote every day, and tell all of your Oklahoma friends! Thanks!

Okay, here we go:
I have 10 Nancy Drew Get A Clue special screening movie passes. The passes are for Monday, June 11, 2007 at 7:30 p.m. at the AMC Quail Springs, 2501 West Memorial, OKC. These are compliments of FOXCW Oklahoma City and our CSLP-CA & NY representatives. Each single pass admits two people. Arrive early as seating is first come, first serve. The movie is rated PG.
Now, here’s what you have to do:
Go post in the forums. Either start a topic or reply to a previous post. The rule is to post something of substance. As the administrator I am able to see who posted and when to determine the winners. The first 10 people to post will receive one ticket. Once you win a ticket your library/branch will no longer be qualified to win again. You can still post in the forums, though. {hint, hint}
For those whose firewalls don’t allow posting on forums, you can e-mail your post to me. Have the forum name that you want it posted. The time on my e-mail will count as your post on the forums.
And, the winners are:
- Stillwater Public Library
- El Reno Carnegie Library
- Hennessey Public Library
- Eastern Oklahoma Library District
Thanks for playing everyone! I still have more posters and stickers to give away, so keep checking back.
Have a good weekend!!
There are posters! My comic book store connection was able to hook me up with 10 posters. So, how about another contest?
You have until 4:00 CST Friday, April 20, 2007 to e-mail me. The first 4 people to send me an e-mail will get one Free Comic Book Day poster each. Winners will be determined by the time their e-mail is received on my e-mail server.
BTW, the poster looks fabulous!!!
