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 are looking forward to our advocacy Postcard Party coming up on Tuesday, December 19th from 3-5pm at the Local Blend coffee shop in St. Joseph! We’ll chat, have snacks, and write out postcards to library stakeholders!
We want to make this as pain-free for you as possible, so CMLE will supply the postcards, library facts, 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. Plus, we’ll mail all the postcards at the end!
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!
