One of the more popular summer reading activities/displays is collecting postcards from areas around the country (or world) and displaying them with a map in you library. Since the national theme for the 2011 SRP is "One World, Many Stories", more libraries than usual are already thinking about such a display and looking for other libraries to exchange postcards with. To help, we have set up a Yahoo group with a simple database. Simple to join, then just click on "Database" and then "Contact List", and you are set to go!
Now to start collecting postcards...and begging for stamps...
