Please consider joining the Michigan Library Delegation at the 2017 National Library Legislative Day (NLLD) in Washington DC! As in past years, GaleCengage is sponsoring 2 librarians to attend this important advocacy event. Click on the link below for more information and to submit for consideration and please share with your colleagues. Deadline for submitting is March 20th. http://galesupport.com/legislativeday/ NLLD includes a briefing day (Monday) for librarians from all 50 states who convene in DC to represent their state and its libraries to their Congressional delegations. On Tuesday, everyone goes to the Hill to speak with their representative. It's a great way to advocate for federal funding-LSTA, ERate, ESSA, etc.-all of which effect us on the state level and to let Congress know what great work libraries do in their states/districts. We'd love to have you join us this year! Please let me know if you have any questions. Best regards, Deb D. R.
