Help SALS celebrate 50 years of service by sharing your photographs of programs, activities, people and your building.

Photos can be emailed to Jennifer or uploaded onto your Flickr account. Please become a SALS contact on Flickr by clicking here: salsmembers . You can also join our group.

If you don’t have a Flickr account, remember to take advantage of SALS DIY days. All you need to do is email Jennifer with a time and day that you would like to work on a technology project at SALS. You will be able to work one-on- one with a SALS staff member at your convenience away from the hustle and bustle of your library.
