QUALITY STORYTENTS

A resource for family, early childhood and community literacy workers

Acknowledgements

Development of the Quality Storytent Program took place over several years, with the assistance or encouragement of many literacy advocates and practitioners. We would particularly like to acknowledge the direct and indirect support we received from the following organizations:

• Crescent Valley Community Tenant’s Association
• Donihee Consulting
• Early Intervention Saint John Inc.
• Family Resource Centre (SJ) Inc.
• Literacy New Brunswick Inc.
• Saint John Family Literacy Committee Inc.
• Saint John Free Public Library
• Saint John Learning Exchange
• Saint John Library Region

We would also like to acknowledge the support and encouragement of Joann Hamilton–Barry, Library Director and Ian Wilson, Regional Director, without whom we would not have had the opportunity to develop the Storytent as a program. As well, we would like to thank Hon. Trevor Holder, MLA for Saint John Portland, for his continued assistance and encouragement. We are also extremely grateful for the funders of the Storytent, documented in Summer Reading Club: Outreach library service through a neighbourhood storytent program, available at: http://www.nald.ca/clr/readclub/2.htm.
