PLA Advocacy Training

By karen | June 6, 2012

Turning the Page 2.0 is a unique opportunity for free, in-depth, interactive, online education in public library advocacy.  Participants in this six week course get one-on-one attention from professional facilitators as they build a customized Advocacy Work Plan for their library.

The session begins with a free, optional program at the ALA 2012 Annual Conference on June 22, then transitions into an online six-week course with weekly virtual classroom sessions and independent work.

Registration for the summer session (week of July 9-week of August 13) is now open. Registration closes June 13, so don’t miss this opportunity to hone your relationship building and ‘asking’ skills.  Having participated in the original Turning the Page session, I highly recommend taking advantage of the opportunity to participate in this advocacy program.  If you can’t make this session, it will be repeated in the Fall.  Visit the Turning the Page 2.0 website for more details.

Turning the Page 2.0 was developed and presented by the Public Library Association (PLA) with generous support from The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
