I'm a member of this organization for mystery writers and readers and was delighted to see that they are supporting libraries. There are many wonderful authors, including a lot from Texas, who could be the focus for a library display. --Jeanette Larson, Pflugerville, TX http://www.sistersincrime.org/displaycommon.cfm?an=1&subarticlenbr=53 Sisters in Crime is pleased to announce the first "We Love Libraries" lottery. Monthly grants of $1,000 will be awarded from January through December 2010. At the end of each month, a winner will be drawn from entries received at our website at www.sistersincrime.org. Only U.S. libraries may enter the drawing. To enter, simply complete the entry form and upload a photo of one or more of your staff with three books in your collection by Sisters in Crime members. You can find a list of members on the website. After the random drawing on the last business day of the month, the winning library will be contacted and announced. All branches within a larger system may enter; however, once a library in the system has won, no other libraries within that system can win the grant. Those not successful in one month will automatically be entered for subsequent drawings. Grants must be used to purchase books and may not be used for general operating expenses. Book purchases are NOT restricted to the mystery genre nor to those by Sisters in Crime members. There is no cost or obligation other than allowing us to post winners' photos on our website. All libraries are welcome to enter. If you have Sisters in Crime author mysteries in your collection we would love for you to enter this money giveaway. We at Sisters in Crime LOVE our libraries and want to see them thrive. Enter for your library's chance to win beginning January 1, 2010 at www.sistersincrime.org. If you have any questions please contact Beth Wasson. _______________________________________________ syscon-tx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.tsl.state.tx.us/mailman/listinfo/syscon-tx
