[Libs-Or] Fwd: [ALA-WO:101] Countdown to National Library Legislative Day

[Jim Scheppke]

The State Library coordinates Oregon's participation in ALA National 
Library Legislative Day.  We already have representatives from OLA and 
OEMA and a few others planning to go this year.  Anyone else who would 
like to join us would be welcome.  This is the one time each year that 
we can show support for our national library association's legislative 
agenda, which includes increasing Federal financial support for all 
types of libraries.  If you are interested in joining us in DC on May 
3-4, and I haven't heard from you yet, let me know right away.  Thanks!
