There's one day left for libraries to get involved with this nonpartisan national campaign for voter engagement. ALA is a premier partner of National Voter Registration Day (NVRD) and has also provided resources on our website for libraries to help #LibrariesEngageVoters. Libraries can sign up to partner with NVRD at bit.ly/ALANVRD.

Emergency Connectivity Fund<https://www.ala.org/advocacy/ecf> $$ (FCC): Applications accepted September 28-October 13
https://www.ala.org/advocacy/ecf
More than $2 billion remains of this $7 billion program to provide hotspots, chromebooks and connectivity for libraries and schools. We encourage you to work directly with your state E-rate coordinator to promote this valuable opportunity to your libraries. Also, note that ALA is working with state E-rate coordinators to conduct a short survey of local libraries that applied for ECF funding or considered applying but decided not to.
