Letters About Literature Update

Entry information for this year is now available at Letters About Literature. New Hampshire students in grades 4-12 are invited to enter and we encourage everyone to use the Library of Congress's new online submission form which will open at the end of this week.  

Students who will not yet be 13 years old on November 1, 2018 will need to have a permission form signed by their parent or guardian to enter (even if they enter by mailing us their letter). We encourage teachers to get these sent home and signed ahead of time.

Online entry is a new process for Letters About Literature and the Library of Congress has compiled some teacher's resources which you may find useful in planning for this year's entries. There is an option for New Hampshire students to enter via snail mail which requires a new national entry coupon (and a permission slip for students under 13). The NH Center put together some notes on completing the new coupon. If you are using the online entry you system you don't need a coupon at all as the information will put entered directly.

We hope that the online process will go smoothly, but it is new and there may be some bumps along the way. Please get in touch if you have problems entering. All NH entries must be completed online or postmarked by midnight on December 14, 2018.
