Tips for Library Legislative Day & Capitol Map

Before You Leave Town

This year, we want to encourage you to invite the legislators you meet with to visit your library.  Please download the invitation letter template below, fill in the details, and print it on your library's letterhead to share at your meetings.  Be sure to print enough copies for each visit (if you are meeting with four legislators, print four copies, etc.).
