    Hello Affiliate Assembly Representatives,

    As a follow-up to my Midwinter presentation promoting membership in the Freedom to Read Foundation (FTRF), AASL president Carl Harvey is sending a letter to your organization with additional information on FTRF including the flyer distributed at Midwinter, a membership brochure, and copy of the Freedom to Read Foundation News. The cost for membership for your organization is $50, a special rate for AASL affiliates. Please consider joining and supporting an organization that helps fight First Amendment battles for school libraries and librarians.

    If you have any questions about joining FTRF or general questions about the Foundation, please contact me (hadams@mansfield.edu) or Jonathan Kelley at the FTRF office at (800) 545-2433 ext. 4226 or ftrf@ala.org/.

    FYI If you association is part of an ALA Chapter, no letter was sent.

    Helen Adams

    FTRF Board of Trustees and retired school librarian from Wisconsin.
