Oregon Battle of the Books
It is time to start reading-up for the 2008-2009 Battle of the Books!  Listed below are the books, by division, that are featured in this year's events.  All books are listed, but books in BOLD print are books that TBABS patrons can check out in accessible formats.  Not all books are available in each format, so read the details carefully.  Books that begin with "RC" are in Recorded Cassette and books that begin with "BR" are in Braille format. 
 
For more information on Oregon's Battle of the Books, visit the Oregon Association of School Libraries.
