[ISLMA-Share] library in mural

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I am not sure if this is within her scope of work, but Heather Gentile
Collins does beautiful mural work and is just an all around great person.
She did the mural in the children's section of RoscoeBooks and also the
"Welcome to Roscoe Village" sign in the Roscoe Village neighborhood of
Chicago. I worked at RoscoeBooks and loved when she came in to visit :)
