The Connecticut Library Association is pleased to thank all 19 members

Appropriations Committee, and several other key legislators (Senators
Paul Doyle, Thomas Gaffey, and Donald Williams) for their support of
increased funding for the following statewide library programs during
the last session of the General Assembly:

in FY2008

$350,000 in FY2008

*	iCONN, from $1,894,322 in FY2007 to $2,067,485 in FY2008.

The CLA Legislative Committee has therefore scheduled a reception to
honor all 22 of these legislators at Capital Community College in
Hartford (whose Library Director, Carl Antonucci, is also the President
of CLA this year) on Wednesday, November 7, at 4:00 PM, in the Walter
Markiewicz Community Room on the 2nd floor (turn left as you exit the
elevator).
