2010 at the Center

We're busy, busy... here at the Center preparing for our main event of 2010, the "Oz: The Books" conference and our annual 'Secret Garden Party', this year, with a Wicked theme. If you're interested in attending the conference, send in your registration early for discounted price.

We are also encouraging students on 4th -12th grade to submit their writing for the 'Oz Writing Contest' which will have $600 total cash prize and other prizes as well.







On the first week of January, an aspiring librarian/artist/illustrator, Dora Mitchell, volunteered at the Center and  work on our Oz theme display. So, come on over to the Center to see it in person! So far, we have the L. Frank Baum display case and the Oz: The Books Conference Speaker display case. We would have more Oz-themed display cases as we're getting closer to the main event dates.



Many thanks to Michael Cart, who sent us donation of 40+ boxes, containing 1100+ YA themed books at the end of December 2009. We finally finished unpacking the boxes and here are a glimpse of what 1100+ books looks like on our shelf!
