Government Information for Kids - NEW GODORT Committee

[tadamich]

Hi, Everyone:

We're looking for talented librarians who would like to be a part of the new GODORT Gov Doc Kids Group Committee. Below is an overview:
Gov Doc Kids Group is a national group of government information librarians. The Group is endorsed by the State Library of Kansas, Kansas Library Association Government Documents Roundtable (GODORT),the State Library of Ohio and the Government Documents Roundtable of Ohio.

Our goal is to promote the use of government information by the K-12 community.

Our Constitution Day Poster Contest resource can be found at: http://www.constitutionfacts.com/consti ... n-contest/

Please join us at
http://govdocs4children.pbworks.com/FrontPage and http://wikis.ala.org/godort/index.php/Gov_Doc_Kids .A video commercial highlighting our Constitution Day Poster Contest is available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It6ktjFSivM . A press kit is available at http://community.fdlp.gov/files/doc_dow ... s-kit.html

We plan to meet at ALA Annual and Mid-Winter, but we'll also hold virtual meetings and can arrange to have you attend what works best for you.
If you'd really like to do something worthwhile and open K-12 students and teachers to the wealth of government information and resources available to them, this is how you could make a difference! Please contact me directly using the information listed in my signature for more information and to join.
Thanks, and take care.
Tom
