[LIBRARYDIR] Library Legislative Day?

[Aden, Cindy]

Hi, Sam!

Great that you will be there. The issue that WLA is focusing on is the request for a new state library/archives building. There will be a briefing packet on this issue and information about other bills that are making their way through the process now. It appears that there is no need for library concerns over some key bills, as they stand today, i.e. 1728 Exploitation of Minors and 1594 & 1595 concerning public records requests. Amendments could change things, but as a result of the lack of urgency, the library community is coming to the support of the state library to see if we can request 22M in capital funding for a much-needed facility.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Cindy

Hello,

I'm planning to attend Library Legislative Day next week-my VPI encouraged me to touch base with this group to see if there's any message/bills/etc that I should promote with local legislators. Let me know, and also let me know if you'll be there too!

Thanks,
Sam
