Bowling Green branch member Maria Simon is a librarian at the Wood County District Public Library in Bowling Green, Ohio.  Fellow branch member Diane Regan, president of AAUW-OH, read about Let’s Read Math in the AAUW annual report and suggested that Maria try Let’s Read Math for her summer reading program at the library.  As of May 2009, Maria is planning a summer reading program called “Creativity Counts: Let’s Read Math!”  Middle school girls will come to the library once a week to work with  children in grades K-4, with supervision from the librarians.  One of the first books they are planning to use is Math-terpieces by Greg Tang.          

In June 2009, Diane Regan reported that the Bowling Green AAUW Branch and the public library received a community foundation grant to support the summer program at the library.
