[Reading-hall-of-fame] Fwd: Hunting for vintage ILA photos

[P David Pearson]

Reading Hall of Fame colleagues,
I am forwarding this request from Lara Deloza on the ILA STAFF. THEY ARE
LOOKING FOR ARTIFACTS, PARTICULARLY PHOTOS, THAT THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO USE
IN THE MATERIALS. THEY ARE SHARING FOR THE 70TH ANNIVERSARY OF ILA.

Feel free to correspond directly with Lara If you have relevant photos or
other artifacts to share.

ILA will be hosting a lot of webinars during the year long 20 26 70th
anniversary celebration.

Best,
David

Hi David, Norm, and Rita,



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 *Literacy
Today*, 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.



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.



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.



Thank you in advance for your consideration!



Lara
