CLA Spring in the District Info


From Carol Simmons, Executive Director of the California Library Association:
Spring in the District is here and it’s time to meet with your legislators about restoring state funding to California’s libraries. To make these meetings as easy as possible, CLA is providing:
  • Talking points
  • Tips for lobbying your legislator
  • List of lead contacts and appointment schedule
Please refer to the appointment lists for State Assembly and State Senators and contact the lead to join the appointment and receive further information. Check this page often as appointments are being scheduled and added daily!

This is the time to get involved! Without $15.2 million in State matching funds, California will lose its Federal Funding ($16 million) for libraries. Prevent a double whammy!

Thanks!
Carol Simmons, Executive Director
California Library Association
