Today's post is from Carol Brey-Casiano, director of El Paso Public Library:

Looking to improve your advocacy skills? Want to meet fellow library supporters from across the state? Get the tools to become an effective library advocate at the Advocacy Institute. Attendees will leave with an action plan that they can implement in their communities or campuses.

We will hear from TLA's own Gloria Meraz, as well as ALA's new Director of the Office for Library Advocacy, Marci Merola.

It’s not too late to sign up for the ALA Advocacy Institute—the deadline has been extended through Monday, March 31!

Hope to see you there!
