Opportunity for Change? Freeze-n-Read for Library Advocacy

We are trying to get the word out about a very simple way we all can be change agents in promoting libraries. I would like to invite everyone to Freeze-n-Read 4 Libraries during National Library Week! What began as a simple NLW activity for our school has grown into a library advocacy event we hope everyone who loves libraries will embrace. Our website, www.freeze-n-read.weebly.com explains the simple process (Promote, Freeze, Get Involved) and brings together in one place links to "cool" and "chilling" facts about libraries along with effective ways to bring about change. We include a blog to gather information about libraries in crisis, photo gallery for "Freezers" and a poll to document participation. My students and I are excited about the potential this has, but we need your help. Please ask your colleagues, friends and family to Vote 4 Libraries on the website and Freeze-n-Read in some way during National Library Week! ~Sincerely, Kathy Adams and The Freeze-n-Read Staff
