<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Hi David, Norm, and Rita,<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">As part of the 70th Anniversary work, we’re gathering vintage photos to help tell ILA’s story over time—Board meetings, conferences, committee work, publications, and so on.
For the cover of the Jan/Feb/Mar issue of <i>Literacy Today</i>, we’ll need at least one high-resolution image; if we can’t secure a single strong option, a collage may be our next best approach.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">If you have older ILA photos you can easily access, would you be willing to share them? Rough dates, locations, and a few words about who or what is pictured would be incredibly
helpful. And if you know others who might have photos tucked away, we’d appreciate any referrals.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">We’re hoping to gather assets over the next few weeks, with a bit more urgency around potential cover images. That said, I know each of you has a lot on your plate, so please
feel free to pass if now isn’t the right time.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
