[LM_NET] USBBY: Bridge to Understanding Award - Call for Applications

[Judi Moreillon <info@STORYTRAIL.COM>]

Dear Colleagues,
This year, I am serving on the USBBY (United States Board for Books for
Young People) Bridge to Understanding Award Committee. We are seeking to
identify and honor innovative programs that use children's literature as
a way to promote international understanding.

Schools, libraries, scout troops, clubs and bookstores are all eligible
for this award. Does your school or library program or do you know of
another organization that "promotes reading as a way to expand a child's
world"?

To learn more about the award, view information about past winners, and
to access entry, criteria, and application forms, please link to:

The submission deadline for the next award is January 31, 2011.

For additional information contact the USBBY secretariat at:
Secretariat@usbby.org or phone: 224.233.2030

Or email me.

Thank you.

Best,
Judi
