No excuses: if you can't get to NLLD in person, participate in the Virtual Library Legislative Day  by contacting your legislators via phone call, e-mail or ALA's "Take Action" page http://capwiz.com/ala/home/.

Did your representative support school libraries in the Senate or the House? Did your senator co-sponsor a bill that would help school libraries? Did your representative sign onto a key letter requesting support for school libraries? 

ALA's Legislative Scorecards offer answers and ways to hold your elected representatives accountable. If they didn’t cosponsor critical library legislation, ask them why. If they did, be sure to thank them and show your appreciation for their support of libraries.
