The Marshall News Messenger, a fine pine tree based product that I formerly threw at (excuse me) to many homes in my early career in publishing, carries a warm story that actually carries a bit of Texana inadvertantly.
Library receives grant for an Elmo projector
Wednesday, June 25, 2008
"The Waskom Public Library recently received a grant from the Tocker Foundation to fund an Elmo projector that projects book pages onto the TV, digital camera and printer as well as books to add to the collection.
Based in Austin, the purpose of the Tocker Foundation is to distribute funds principally for the support, encouragement and assistance to small rural libraries in Texas."

Notice in the photo, the adult is Texas dressed and using a Texas book. Never too young to introduce kids to their broader community.
Oh, and the Tocker Foundation is a wonderful crew - grants to small libraries just like Waskom. Check them out.
