Head over to our spring workshop page. The Spring Workshop Fundraiser: Virtual Auction Thank you to everyone who participated in the CSD fundraiser this spring. Whether you bid, bought, or donated, your support is greatly appreciated. The fundraiser brought in over $700. What's next for CSD? If you were a member back in 2019, you might recall our first Summer Reading Summit in the fall! We are planning on having a similar learning opportunity called the Youth Services Summit. We are unsure if this will be in person or virtual, but will very likely have a virtual component. Stay tuned for more info, and thank you for your support of CSD! Bryce Kozla CSD Co-chair

In the past, the CSD fundraiser was held during the spring workshop, an all-day, in-person event. In 2020, the Spring Workshop and fundraiser, scheduled for mid-March, were cancelled due to the Coronavirus lockdown. Today, we are hosting our first virtual auction fundraiser. Auction winners in the Portland Metro Area may be able to arrange pick up instead of shipping the titles to you, especially if you purchase many lots. Please contact our incoming co-chair for pick up arrangements. If you have questions about our fundraiser, please contact our incoming co-chair, Susan Cackler. If you are on a book committee and receive a large quantity of quality children's books, please consider donating them to CSD. Please contact our incoming chair to make your donation. Thank you for supporting the Children's Services Division! A sneak peak video of the titles in the virtual auction: AuthorTara Morissette  1. The Spring Workshop continues.

 Looking for a quick way to see if the Alaska Libraries iREAD Showcase on YouTube has anything that can help you? Check out this “Cliffs Notes” version of the webinar. Included are types of events discussed and the time stamp (minutes:seconds) on the YouTube video (see bottom of blog post for the video). I also created Bibliocommons lists of book titles discussed. I did not include every title mentioned. Spend a few minutes looking at this quick view of the YouTube video and see if there is anything of interest in the one hour and 20-minute webinar. Hope this saves you some time and helps your summer reading planning. Let us know if you would like to see more quick view versions of webinars.
