National Library Legislative Day May 14

We need your voice to be heard on National Library Legislative Day (May 14)!
We need you to join the thousands of other librarians, library workers, trustees, and library users participating in "Virtual Library Legislative Day!"

Please take 10-15 minutes today or tomorrow to send a message to all of your congressional representatives, letting them know how important libraries are to society, and the need for:

more federal funding for libraries
a certified school media specialist in every school
fair copyright laws
an expanded role for libraries in E-Government
national security letter reform
ALA's Legislative Action Center provides you with talking points on these important issues. You can use them to craft your message as you wish, and send it to all of your representatives.

Thanks so much for taking a few minutes out of your day to help libraries across the nation
