LSTA Grant Survey
I just wanted to remind those libraries who have yet to fill out and return the survey, regarding the LSTA grant that we are participating in, that I sent out  to please return it soon!  The deadline to return is May 20^th. 
 
Your responses are very important in developing the training modules that are the main part of this grant.
 
I still have not heard from the following libraries:
 
AUB, AURO, BERK, CAN, FAIR, GRO, NEVA, OVID, POP, SPE, TRU, WAT, WAV, WEED
 
Thanks and let me know if you have any questions.
