The first Children's Librarians' Roundtable Meeting for this year was held on Sept. <br /> 24". We met with Katie Baxter, the new Assistant Administrator for Youth Services <br /> at SEMLS. .Katie discussed continuing education, the summer reading program and <br /> the statewide steering committee. Roundtable Officers was another topic of <br /> discussion and yours truly was elected as Vice President for this year, to take over as <br /> President next year. (Being a"rookie", I was quite surprised by the encouragement <br /> and support of my colleagues!) <br /> The end of the month also signaled the end of the Early Childhood Grant Project. We <br /> ended the grant project with two highly successful programs featuring that famous <br /> purple dinosaur. On Sept. 27`" Barney entertained 100 preschoolers and toddlers, and <br /> on Sept. 29'h the program was repeated for 34 local day care providers. After the <br /> program, participants were able to sign up for the fall storytime sessions for <br /> preschoolers, toddlers and day care providers. These storytimes will begin in <br /> October. <br />
