Dear Sir/Madam,
Each year, in anticipation of Children's Book Week, the Children's and Youth Services (NSW) Group of the Australian Library and Information Association presents a 'Pre-Book Week extravaganza.' This event attracts children's librarians and teacher-librarians for a brainstorming session on ways to promote and enjoy the CBC short-listed titles with children in libraries and schools. This year the Children's and Youth Services (NSW) Group is hosting the Pre-Book Week Extravaganza on xxx at xxx. These events includes ideas for:
* Displays in the library
* Readers theatre - simple dramatised reading of a scene from a book
* Storytelling
* Cross words and find-a-words
* Competitions (colouring in etc)
We are seeking your permission to use the short listed titles published by your company in these ways during the Extravaganza and Children's Book Week, crediting the author and publisher. A representative from your company would be welcome to attend the Extravaganza.
Yours sincerely,
