[OPLINLIST] Save the Date: Library Advocacy Day, June 29, 2010

Please excuse multiple postings...

 

As you make your travel plans for the American Library Association (ALA)
Annual Meeting, please plan to spend the extra day for Library Advocacy.
For one year only, National Library Legislative Day normally held in
May, is being held on June 29, 2010 in conjunction with the ALA Annual
Conference.  The day will kick off with an 11 a.m. rally at Upper Senate
Park on the U.S. Capitol grounds featuring guest speakers, photo ops,
and a chance to cheer on libraries.  After the rally, the Ohio
delegation will visit with elected Congress members to express support
for library-friendly funding and policies.

 

Additionally, you may still participate in Library Advocacy Day even if
you do not attend the ALA Annual Conference.

If you are interested in being a part of the Ohio delegation please
contact Bill Morris, Legislative Day State Coordinator, at

messages about participation in the next month or so.
