PPSP planning list

[James Werle <>]

All, 

As our program series is poised to launch next week, its time for each of
us to shift our individual marketing efforts into high gear.

Toward that end, I asked my dear friend and colleague Marcia Mardis at
Florida State University to post the note below to the following
listservs:  
<>;
  
<>;
<>;
 
<>.
  We've now pretty well
covered the U.S. school librarian community!

I've also posted it to the 

 list which goes to the
40+ not-for-profit R&E networks around the country which will in turn
share it with all the schools they connect in each state.


As you post messages to your various communication channels, please
forward the messages and URL pointers to me and/or this listserv.  This
will help us get a comprehensive view into our collective marketing
efforts and evaluate what is working well.


Thank you,
James
