Library leaders are facing multiple challenges right now. Attempts to
censor books, limit access to our libraries, and reshape the nature of
librarianship settings come in many shapes and from several different
directions.

Join John Chrastka, executive director of EveryLibrary, the national
political action committee for libraries, for a three-hour interactive
workshop where he will share practical, actionable tools to prepare your
board and staff, manage crisis communications, evaluate policies, and
activate allies to protect your library and your readers.

Advocacy and Activism are interrelated but are not the same. In order to
succeed in either an advocacy effort or an activism campaign, it is
critically important for library leaders to understand the differences in
the messages they should share.



As we face ongoing budget problems and other challenges at all levels of
government, a new kind of approach to both advocacy and activism is key in
building support among the elected officials who control your finances and
participate in your contracts.

Topics Covered:

>From Advocacy to Activism

Three Languages of Politics

Marketing to Build Support

Coalitions as Change Agents

Emerging Policy Issues
