The Topeka and Shawnee County Public Library in SL has moved to Cybrary City II. We've enjoyed our stay on Cybray City but our new location will allow more space and prims and put us closer to two other Kansas libraries in Second Life, the State Libary of Kansas and Olathe Public Library.
We invite you to come see us at our new location! A SLURL appears at the bottom of this email. Cindy Elkhart / Diana Sowers,

Help Plan SL Events with Experienced SL Volunteers!
Please let Marimar Berchot marimar.berchot@gmail.com know if you are interested in taking the lead on one of these upcoming events to bring people to AVL and to also make money to support the library sims.
You can form a group to help you with the plan and the events. You'll have able advisers from those of us who have planned large events before. We are also interested in volunteers to help with these events! There are many elements to each - promotion, coordinating events, speakers, parties, evaluations, etc. If you want to contact me to ask questions, please do!
March 2009 - Science Fair - Speakers, exhibits, etc. We have several members of the scientific community active in our group of volunteers and this will be a chance for us to build on that and reach out to this community in Second Life.
April 2009 - Literary Festival - This year's Literary Festival will feature young adult literature. Teo and her group managed last year's with great success and she has agreed to act as an advisor for producing this year's event. Last year we had several speakers, exhibits, and parties.
May 2009 - Third Anniversary Celebration - THREE YEARS! This celebration will be spread across Info, Info International, Infotainment, Imagination, and Illumination Islands. We could use someone from each island to work with a committee to coordinate the celebration.

Rensaissance Island
Renaissance Island welcomes all travellers who pass through our village. Please stop in for a pint of ale and rest your feet for a spell at our Rose and Crown. You might even hear the latest gossip of the village. Maybe the London Globe draws your interest when strolling through our commons. The Globe is a beautiful replica of the original before she perished and hosts rehearsals in preparation of a play. For those Battle Thirsty Warriors, we have a training arena that holds Joust practices and tourney, along with fencing, and archery. Join the groups for updates on events held all over second life. And be sure to stop by our Merchant row to pick up your very own (free) period clothing as a courtesy from our village. There is plenty to do and see at this wonderful sim. Please contact Korrigan Keynes or Diamond Coronet if you have questions about holding students classes or holding an event.
