You’re Invited to Party with EveryLibrary

EveryLibrary is excited to announce events organized by some of our outstanding supporters.

These meetups are a great chance for library professionals to come together to talk about issues around political advocacy in libraries, have a drink together, and network with other professionals.  The fundraisers are just one of the ways that we build the resources we need to win political campaigns for libraries across the country so come out and support your profession and have a good time.  Please help us share these events by inviting your friends to them and posting the event pages to your FB walls.
