Continuing Education
Registration Form: Advocacy: Public Officials

Course Description

Working with public officials to cultivate library advocates in your community may seem like a daunting task. Learning about your officials will help ensure a positive outcome when communicating your library's message. During this 2 hour distance learning session, we will discuss how to pinpoint your officials' priorities, shape the message you want to communicate to the officials, all while working to get public officials into our library to raise visibility of your resources. This is the third in a series of four classes in the advocacy track.

Intended Audience:

Anyone interested in learning how to communicate with local public officials to raise awareness of the library.

Registration to this free of charge class is limited to two people from each library system. While this is an online class, it is live and there are only 15 seats available. If you were paying for this session it would cost $120 per person. Registration will be accepted on a first come first served basis. The registration deadline is two weeks prior to the session.
