How to play the Game

Select one question from each base, for a total of four questions, and use your library’s print and electronic resources to find the correct answers. Consult your librarian—the ultimate search engine—if you need assistance.

You’ll be able to print the questions to help you look up the answers and fill them in when you’re ready.

After you have filled in your answers on the First Base section, you must click SAVE AND GO TO 2ND BASE. You must do the same to proceed to 3rd Base and Home Plate. If you do not save, your answers will be lost.

Once you’ve filled in your answers on each of the bases, press the PROCESS MY ANSWERS button. IMPORTANT: Do not hit this button until you’re sure you’re ready. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LOG BACK IN OR PLAY AGAIN!

If you need more time or need to step away from the computer, simply click on the LOG OUT button and your information will be saved. Then, log back in later at www.ala.org/baseball to complete the game. Just remember to submit your answers by September 1, 2008.

Remember, you will be able to print out the questions so you can write down the answers and have them in front of you while you are entering them in online.
