Friends of the Somerville Public Library requests support

Friends of the SPL

Hello folks: I'm not a member of the Friends of the Somerville Public Library, but I do love the library. And as a kid the library was a really important place for me.

They are competing for some learn and play kits, and have tweeted a couple of times looking for votes for their entry. I wouldn't ask if it required registration (I hate that too). You only have to select them from the pulldown menus and do a captcha for this one.

For the kids of Somerville, if you can spare a minute, go vote for them. The current totals look pretty reasonable, so a little bit of support might go a long way here. I also noted that it was possible to vote from my phone....

Here's their tweet request--also consider following them if you are on twitter: https://twitter.com/Friends_SPL/status/239090235848392704

• @Friends_SPL: Can you take 30 seconds and vote for the SPL Central Branch here http://readbuildplay.com/index.cfm In the running for play/read kits. THx

Note: I looked for guidelines on whether these kinds of "vote for..." posts were allowed but couldn't find objections. If it's not acceptable please feel free to moderate away.

I voted! I voted for the west branch, since it makes you pick one of three branches and that's the closest to me.

here's a link that's easier for people to follow:

friendly moderator note

The content of your post is fine for this community!

It looks like you used the 'Rich Text' editor to compose it, and unfortunately that does not turn URLs into live links. To fix this:

- Click the blue-pencil icon to edit the post
- For each URL in your post (I see two of them), select and copy the URL. Click on the 'Link' icon (just to the right of the vertical bar in the Rich Text editor), and paste the URL into the little pop-up box that appears
- Click the 'Save Entry' button at the bottom of the edit window
