Gray Building, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0250 January 1993 Dear Youth Librarian: Welcome to Florida's 25th Annual Summer Library Program. He:e at the State Library, we share your commitment to Florida's young people, and are proud of the crucial role Florida's libraries play in helping them develop a love of reading and books. Florida's was one of the first--and remains one of the most vigorous--Summer Library Programs in the nation. As we celebrate the 25th annual Summer Library Program, I want to thank you for your contributions over the last quarter- century. Without your dedication and participation, the program would not have reached the hundreds of thousands of children in the Sunshine Stata who have enjoyed their summers of books, reading, and programs over the years. We encourage you and your staff to participate fully in this year's Silver Anniversary celebration. Together we can continue to give joy to the state's young people and work toward accomplishing our shared goals of eliminating illiteracy and developing life-long library users. Cordially, rratt Wilkins State Librarian BW/cc 1993 Florida Summer Library Program eveeivixtlittoye wv25tEL,%cLid. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS As with any endeavor that has wide impact, many people are responsible for the success of Florida's vigorous Summer Library Program. For twenty-five years, the State Library of Florida has nurtured the development of this vital program.This summer we are celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the program. A special thank you goes to Dr. F. William-Summers, formerly State Librarian, and Mary Jane Anderson, formerly Youth Services Consultant.It is under their direction that this program originated. Today we continue the tradition established twenty-five years ago of fostering the development, growth, and enhancement of library service to youth that the Summer Library Program provides. Special thanks go to all of you in the field who keep this program vital and growing.

These dedicated librarians are responsible for the direction the program takes each year.Participatory planning is one of the outstanding components of Florida's program. In addition to the members of the Summer Library Program Planning Committee, other librarians have contributed time, energy, and effort in assisting with the preparation of this year's manual.

We hope that you will be able to join us for one of the six workshops that are being staged during the month of February 1993. We thank Jan for her input and advice on this manual and accommodating a statewide tour. The Florida Library Association and its management company, Crow Segal, administers the Library Services and Construction Act grant that funds this Program. Special thanks go to Marjorie Stealey, Executive Secretary of FLA, and all the office staff for their patience and assistance on the project. State Library staff assist in numerous ways on this project. The consultant and support staff in the Bureau of Library Development provide input and help without which the success of this task would not be possible.Staff from the Audio Visual Section of the State Library worked to develop appropriate film listings for inclusion in this manual. Without fail, everyone pitched in to guarantee success. The energy and enthusiasm that each of Florida's youth librarians brings to this venture--from the smallest to the largest library, in whatever setting from rural to urban-- makes for the incredible variety and success we call the Florida Summer Library Program. The State Library of Florida thanks each of you for your continued efforts to provide the best public library service to the youth of our state. Carole D.
