The ALA's Chapter Relations Office has established an "Adopt a Library" program to provide assistance to libraries damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. The program will provide an opportunity for U.S. libraries of all types to adopt a library in the Gulf Coast. The ALA will collect information from libraries that need assistance, and will connect those libraries with others that can provide relief. Contributing libraries are asked to lend support in the way of books, computers, fundraising and volunteers. Libraries interested in adopting a library may visit ALA's Chapter Relations Office Web site at http://www.ala.org/katrina/adopt and complete a participation form. ALA's Chapter Relations Office serves as the lead unit in ALA that gathers information on library disasters in the United States, and has been in constant contact with ALA chapters in Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi, and continues to gather information on damage to libraries in the region. . Information inquires should be directed to Michael Dowling, director of ALA Chapter Relations Office at 312-280-3200 or [EMAIL PROTECTED] For updates on the relief efforts for libraries affected by Hurricane Katrina please visit ALA's Hurricane Katrina Library Relief Web site at http://www.ala.org/katrina ************************************************** Marci Merola, PR Specialist-Advocacy Public Information Office, American Library Association 50 E.
