Like it or not, advocacy is not an optional activity for school librarians.
Fortunately, the work involved doesn’t need to be especially difficult or
time-consuming, so it’s time to roll up our sleeves! Come learn from three
expert school library advocates who will share practical tips and
ready-to-go resources to start getting key stakeholders in your corner
today, from the hallway to the town hall.

Dr. Ann Dutton Ewbank will discuss how to build relationships and networks
to influence decision-makers at the local and state level. Dr. Deborah
Rinio will talk about the importance of language and how you can craft your
advocacy message to increase its impact. Finally, Stony Evans, high school
teacher librarian, will share strategies for transforming the teachers in
your school into powerful voices speaking on your behalf.

*5pm EST / 2pm PST*
