    All:

    I wanted to make everyone aware of the following legislative training sessions available from ALA. Please see the announcement below from Jon Martin of ALA's Chapter Relations Office.
    Also, if you have not yet sent your state's legislative agenda for 2023 to Megan Cusick in ALA's Public Policy and Advocacy Office (mcusick@ala.org), today, January 6, is the deadline. I apologize for not sending out a reminder sooner. For your reference, the ALA legislative agenda for 2023 is available here.
    Thank you very much.
