You can help get residents in your community knowledgeable about voting opportunities and steps in the process this fall. ALA offers a variety of resources for libraries to help engage voters. Take a look below.

From ALA: "Libraries are nonpartisan, but they are not indifferent. As institutions that provide access to information, resources, programs, and public spaces for all members of a community, libraries are a cornerstone for civic engagement and more important than ever."
