Thank you to everyone that voted for a date/location for our next Postcard Party! We are excited to announce that it will take place on Tuesday, December 19th from 3-5pm at the Local Blend coffee shop in St. Joseph! They have great food and beverages, so if you want to grab a snack while you write out your advocacy postcards, you can multitask!

The goal behind our Postcard Parties is to share the value of libraries with legislators and other library stakeholders who may not hear enough about the incredible work that takes place in libraries.

At this advocacy event CMLE will provide the postcards, facts about the value of all types of libraries to their communities, addresses for state and federal legislators (feel free to bring your own addresses for your library’s stakeholders), and sample text of what to write on your postcard. We will even mail your postcards after the event so no need to worry about postage.

Please RSVP if you plan to attend! We hope to see you there!
