    Many many thanks to all who made the Stitching SIS Silent Auction a great
    success! We raised $980 for the Friends of the Multnomah County Public
    Library.
    The donated items were just beautiful, and many items were hotly
    contested.

    We invited the Friends of the Multnomah County Public Library
    administrators, Sara Lindgren and Anne Pearson to the exhibit hall on
    Tuesday and they had wonderful things to say about law librarians and
    AALL.
    >From Sara Lindgren:
    Anne and I had such a good time seeing you all and watching the last few
    minutes of the successful silent auction. I even felt lucky to have bid
    on a few items! All our best to your Stitching SIS group and wish you
    continued
    success with silent auctions in the years ahead. What a warm and generous

    contribution you and the handcrafters made to the library-loving people
    of Portland!
    Thank you to you and Joanne, it was a pleasure meeting you both.

    Special thanks go to the State Court & County SIS and to the Law Library
    Association of Maryland for offering us space at their tables in the
    Exhibit Hall.
    We will continue to support the Friends of the Public Llibrary in our
    conference host city. Join us next year in Washington DC for another
    success story.
     
    Best regards to all,
