The little Free Libraries is amazing! I want to build one on my block!<br><br>On the topic of libraries, I've been running a Mobile Circulation Desk for the <a href="http://www.alternativeslibrary.org">Alternatives Library</a>. It's been really fun meeting people and bringing little bits of the library collection to places around town. If you've got an event and would like to have me come, let me know! Tell me what kinds of topics and I'll even try to tailor it a bit :)<br>

A friend of ours was involved in starting up the Little Free Libraries<br>
(<a href="http://www.littlefreelibrary.org/" target="_blank">http://www.littlefreelibrary.org/</a>). My husband and I saw a number of<br>
them when we visited Madison WI, were completely charmed, and are<br>
planning to set one up at our house soon.<br>
<br>
Is anyone else interested in making one? Would people be interested in<br>
having a little building party where we can share tools and materials?<br>

We clearly won't be alone this coming Sunday in celebrating Earth Day!<br>
<br>
<br>
Earth Day Network <a href="mailto:edn@mail.democracyinaction.org">edn@mail.democracyinaction.org</a><br>
2012 is off to a great start for Earth Day Network. With your support and<br>
participation, we have been able to mobilize people around the world and<br>
around the corner to take action to protect the environment on Earth Day<br>
and beyond.<br>
<br>
*But to take it over the finish line, we need more<br>
help.*<<a href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=hFmcT7QW%2BnjEgaeooYJ1zwdI5CsKlFji" target="_blank">http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=hFmcT7QW%2BnjEgaeooYJ1zwdI5CsKlFji</a>><br>
* [fund-raising appeal]*<br>
<br>
We?re working with thousands of event organizers to Mobilize the Earth? on<br>
April 22. In particular, the overwhelmingly positive response we?re seeing<br>
in the Middle East and India is absolutely incredible. From community<br>
clean-ups and tree plantings to rallies and educational events, Earth Day<br>
Network and its partners are making a real difference in the daily lives of<br>
people all over the world.<br>
<br>
In the U.S. this year, Earth Day Network was instrumental in creating the<br>
Department of Education?s Green Ribbon Schools program, the first<br>
comprehensive federal green schools program. Every day, we?re closer to our<br>
goal of greening America?s schools within a generation and making sure<br>
every child is not only environmentally literate but has a healthy learning<br>
environment and a fresh, nutritious lunch.<br>
<br>
We?re also making sure that politicians and government officials will be in<br>
attendance at 1,000 local Earth Day events in all 50 U.S. states ? to<br>
guarantee that our voices are heard. And we?re putting on Earth Day 2012?s<br>
massive flagship event on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., where<br>
hundreds of thousands of people will call for environmental issues to<br>
become a top priority.<br>
