Astronauts and Libraries
The Canadian Library Association "Reading Launches Future Generations" contests with astronaut Steve MacLean and the Canadian Space Agency was featured on Ottawa's A Channel news on Thursday, September 21.
As you prbabaly know, Steve returned safely to earth last week and moves on to supporting libraries and reading.
The almost three-minute clip is temporarily available on the station's website:

Given the delays in launching the space shuttle, the contest deadline has been extended to October 15. The contest poster has details and is posted at:

Now this is a creative way to promote libraries and reading and get some attention too. Watch the short video or check out the CLA website for more.
