Please mark your calendars for a really fun event happening Monday, April 28th. We want to invite you to celebrate School Library Month with CASL and Pablo Cartaya! 

If possible, please RSVP so we know you are joining us. (It's not required by everyone who RSVPs will have a chance to win some prizes).

Also--please share this with anyone who may want to join us!! You don't have to be a librarian to celebrate School Library Month! **Consider inviting your local senators and representatives---it is great advocacy!**
