International School Library Day

I received this from the Coordinator for the International School Library Day and thought it was worth sharing!
"The 9th Annual International School Library Day will soon be upon us. Officially the day is Monday October 22, 2007, however, many places around the world have decided to celebrate our special day at various times during October due to school holidays. The date of your celebration may be different but the message is the same 'Learning: Powered by your School Library'.

As you continue to develop your plans for your special celebration, I wanted to point out a few resources that you may wish to use.
