INTRODUCTION It is "time" to start the 1994 New York State Summer Reading Program For this year's theme of Read Around the Clock, the imaginations of librarians from across the state provided creative ideas tied to history, science, music, and literature. The theme offers an abundance ofprogramming ideas, which have culminated in this resource manual. The 1994 Read Around the Clock manual is a resource guide that can move you. with ease from planning to evaluating the summer reading program, which is such an important part of public library service to youth. Use the camera-ready clip art and printed materials available through Gaylord Brothers to entice children and young adults to your program. With the book lists, programming ideas, games and crafts, you can make this summer "time" the best ever at your library. This manual offers ideas for working with young people from preschool through young adult. Pat Cummings, the award-winning children's book illustrator, brilliantly rendered the theme in rich color illustrations and memorable images. Her vision of Read Around the Clock and her dedication to connecting kids and books made for a successful collaboration. Look at the list of contributors and you will know that there are many people to thank for their support of this statewide project. A special acknowledgement is in order for State Librarian, Joseph F. Shubert, for his continuing support of New York State youth services and for providing the LSCA grant to the Onondaga County Public Library for developing the 1994 Summer Reading Program. A most special thank you goes to Janet Park for her undaunting work and good humor throughout the production of the manual.
