[LM_NET] YALSA, ALSC and AASL Joint Youth Legislation Program

[Mirah Dow <mdow@EMPORIA.EDU>]

Greeting!   As you formulate your schedule of activities for the upcoming 2009 AASL 
& ALA 2009 Annual Conference in Chicago July 9 - 15, make sure to include this 
session in your plan:   

Speak Out! Influence Legislators about Programs for Youth in School and Public 
Libraries
Sunday, July 12, 2009, 10:30 am -- 12:00 pm
McCormick Place West, Room W-185

The Joint Youth Legislation program looks terrific!  Emily Sheketoff, WO Exec Dir, 
and Stephanie Vance, ALA Advocacy Guru are presenting a program about legislation 
advocacy relevant to members of YALSA, ALSC and AASL.  This is an amazing 
opportunity.  Two of the best informed and most savvy legislation leaders will 
address advocacy for programs for children and young adults in public and school 
libraries.  Please be there if at all possible and spread the word.

As the newly appointed chair of the AASL Legislation Committee, I'm looking foward 
to working with you.  Please do feel to contact me anytime.
