Not only are we looking forward to National Library Legislative Day next week and our virtual event at CMLE HQ, but we are also excited to host another Library Advocacy Postcard Party on Thursday, May 31st! We will be at the Local Blend in St. Joseph from 3-5pm with postcards, library facts, addresses for state and federal legislators (if you have information for principals or school board members, bring those along too), and sample text of what to write on your postcard. Plus, we’ll mail all the postcards at the end!

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. It’s up to us to let them know how important libraries are!

We really had fun at our last Postcard Party in December. As you can see, there was lots of advocacy, networking, and conversation. So don’t miss out, join us May 31st!
