Politicians, lobbyists and advocates alike use the terms “education,”
“advocacy” and “lobbying” interchangeably.   But what do they all
mean?  When associated with a government agency or a non-profit it can be
very confusing to know what’s allowed – and what will land you in hot
water.  In this session we’ll look at both the letter and the spirit of the
law when it comes to lobbying and advocacy, as well as specific criteria
you can use to assess your own situation.  Since local library supporters,
whether staff, friends, trustee or board members, have the most influence
in the legislative process, it’s important to know just how far you can go
in connecting them with policymakers.  Believe it or not, you have more
latitude than you think.  And, of course, as a private citizen no one can
curtail your right to speak up and make a difference.****
