Library lovers across the state are invited to join the Rhode Island Library Association on Tuesday, February 10 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. in the RI State House Rotunda for RI Library Legislative Awareness Day. This is a chance to meet-and-greet your state legislators, tell your story, and explain why supporting RI libraries is so important for the well-being of Rhode Islanders.

Plan to stay for a talk at 5pm by Brian C. Jones, a freelance writer for The Library Report blog and former reporter for the Providence Journal. Afterwards, the RI Coalition of Library Advocates will present their annual awards, including the 2015 COLA Sweetheart of the Year Award to Robert H. Aspri, Executive Director of the HELIN library consortium.

More information is available at these links for RI Library Legislative Awareness Day and the COLA awards.
