State library aid items in the biennial state budget benefit all Wisconsin libraries. Our collections are interconnected. We share the same communities and constituents with our legislators. 2023 is a budget producing year and we need your help!
Significant funding gains for library services in the current state budget have enabled Wisconsin public librarians to support readers and leaders from toddlers to senior citizens. K-12 and academic librarians have assisted student needs from pre-K to university level, while our colleagues in specialty libraries supplied information to professionals in a wide variety of settings.
What we all have in common are success stories that need to be shared with our legislators! Please gather your stories of how the crucial state investment in library and information services makes a daily difference in the lives of the Wisconsin residents – and bring them to Madison on February 7 for Library Legislative Day!
Once you register for this event, Library Legislative Day committee members will make appointments with legislators and develop the day's schedule for you. The schedule will be shared with attendees a few days in advance of the event. For more information and best practices on participating in meetings with legislators, click here.
