It describes a wonderful opportunity! Linda Dear Librarian: Are you aware of people living in your service area who are concerned about serious memory loss (Alzheimer's disease or some other form of dementia) either in themselves or a loved one? Are you interested in participating in this grant project by receiving a free set of books and other materials for your library? Are you interested in serving on a short-term (2 to 3 meetings) advisory group to help us to a) review proposed core materials, b) determine the sites in each county to receive the materials, and c) develop a plan for effective distribution and promotion? Please send your replies to the above questions directly to me at the address below by September 23. If you would like more information about the project or our organization, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you in advance for your interest. We are really looking forward to partnering with libraries throughout the state to improve access to information for Alzheimer's families. Sincerely, Liz Weaver Program Director Maine Alzheimer's Association 163 Lancaster Street, Suite 160B Portland, ME 04101 1-800-660-2871 email: [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> website: www.mainealz.org <http://www.mainealz.org>
