I think this is a wonderful idea Anne. Sharon, do we have an idea of how hard any libraries were hit with this storm?

FYI,

 

The Association for Library Service to Children’s Bookapalooza Grant Program

 

Each year the ALSC office receives almost 3,000 newly published books, videos, audio books, and recordings from children’s trade publishers. The materials are primarily for children age birth through fourteen and are submitted to the ALSC award and media evaluation selection committees for award and notables consideration.  At the end of the year, ALSC will select three libraries to receive a Bookapalooza collection of these materials. This is a competitive program and the deadline for applications is December 1, 2012. You can find more information about the criteria and application process here: http://www.ala.org/alsc/bookapalooza-program

 

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

 

Best,
