Public Library Day at the Capitol was a big success. Highlights of the day included a recognition on the House floor for Library Day, as well as our awards presentation with Governor Brian Kemp and University System of Georgia Chancellor Steve Wrigley. It was great to honor our librarian of the year, library of the year and library champion award winners again under the gold dome!
Thanks to all library directors, staff and supporters who joined us this year to talk with members of the Georgia State Senate and Georgia House of Representatives and advocate for Georgia's public libraries and communities.
Please write your local legislators to show your support for libraries. You can find them at www.mvp.sos.ga.gov/
