Public Library Development (PLD) coordinates a statewide summer library program. Through state-sponsored membership to the Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP), Wisconsin public libraries are able to purchase high-quality program materials at a low cost. Library staff can create individual membership accounts through CSLP to access additional online information, including each year's manual and artwork.
