Call-In Action for Gustavus Public Library

Good Afternoon, 

On Friday night, March 14, President Trump issued an Executive Order intended to dismantle the only federal agency dedicated to funding library services, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), as well as six other agencies. The entire staff at a federal agency that funds libraries and museums was put on leave yesterday. Please join us at the Gustavus Public Library for a call-in, today, Wednesday April 2nd from 6-7 PM.

The plan is to debrief the issue, provide an example script, and split up across the library to call our representatives and demand they overturn the executive order to dismantle the Institute for Museum and Library Services.

Spread the word! We will happy to address any questions, comments, or concerns as well.
