This series of seven legislative events provides an opportunity to meet with your legislators and speak with them firsthand about issues affecting you and your library. Library trustees, directors, and staff from public, school, and academic libraries are encouraged to attend and participate. Use this opportunity for photo ops with your elected officials to post on your social media or to invite them to visit your library. Learn more about how to be a strong library advocate and get prepared for a meetup by reviewing the Ready, Set, Advocate presentations and toolkit. Make the most of your Meetup with these tips from the ILA Advocacy Committee.
Advance registration is required, so don't wait! If you have questions regarding registration or you're not sure which Meetup covers your library and legislative district, contact the ILA office via email at ila@ila.org.
Your registration fee includes lunch, legislative materials, and a program featuring state and federal legislative briefings and library-related priorities and speakers.
