Coffee Chat: Advocacy

With recent funding challenges, advocacy for libraries in Maine is critical right now. Join MLA legislative committee chair Michelle Conners and MLA past president Amy Wisehart to learn about legislative advocacy and why it's important for libraries. Find out who your local legislators are, how to connect with them, and build relationships. We'll discuss ideas for inviting legislators to your local library, and ways you can advocate at the state level to make a difference for libraries. We'll provide updates about recent advocacy efforts and concerns, and upcoming advocacy opportunities through the Maine Library Association. All of us working together can make a difference!

The Coffee Chat Series is an MLA Membership benefit. Registration is open to all members, and the event Zoom link will be provided in your registration confirmation email. This event will not be recorded.
