Librarians striving to make a difference will descend upon Capitol Hill May 2 and 3 for National Library Legislative Day (NLLD). They will receive training from an advocacy consultant at the American Library Association’s (ALA) Washington office on May 1, before the action begins in earnest on May 2 with Briefing Day.
Briefing Day offers a whirlwind of sessions touching on the hot Congressional issues affecting libraries. Congressional staff, legal experts, lobbyists, ALA staff and others will participate. The events culminate on May 3 with visits to Capitol Hill for meetings with legislators.
