Subject: Reminder: Take action for Virtual Library Legislative Day



Great news! Thanks to you, we have already sent over 1,600 emails and
almost 200 tweets to Members of Congress.

If you haven't already, please take a few minutes to visit our Action Cente
<http://cqrcengage.com/ala/home>r and send your own email, post a tweet, or
make a call to your legislators today!

ALA's top 2016 Legislative Day Priorities this week are as follows:

•    CONFIRM Dr. Carla Hayden as the next Librarian of Congress
•    SUPPORT LSTA and Innovative Approaches to Literacy (IAL) Funding
•    PASS Electronic Communications Privacy Act Reform
•    RATIFY the Marrakesh Treaty for the print-disabled ASAP

The Action Center will provide you with talking points and pre-written
emails and tweets that you can use, or the option to write your own if you
wish.

We also have more in-depth information available on this year's issue briefs
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/sites/ala.org.advocacy/files/content/04-25-16%20All%20Issue%20Briefs%20NLLD%202016.pdf>
in case you want to brush up on the issues. OR you can head over to the
YouTube page and watch a recording
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzPtq7M-znI> of the National Library
Legislative Day issue briefs.

Together, we can make the Capitol echo with the voices and messages of
library advocates in Washington and online.

Best,
