Got this super sweet picture and note yesterday! I’ll overlook the name misspell 😊 “I had an assignment in library to pick an author that lives in Washington and make a poster about them, so I chose you.📕🐴📗🦮” #authorillustrator #kidlit #graphicnovelist

Congress is back in Washington this week. That means they need to hear from library advocates like YOU who care about federal funding for libraries. Use our easy tool and script to call your members of Congress and tell them to protect library funding: bit.ly/CallCongressForLibraries

Have you watched this yet? If you can, make some time to watch it -- you'll be glad you did.
