National Library Legislative Day
Today & tomorrow are designated by the ALA as National Library Legislative Day(s?) 2007:
On May 1 & 2, 2007, librarians of all kinds are invited to Washington, DC, for an event like no other: National Library Legislative Day (NLLD).
NLLD is a two-day event in which people who care about libraries participate in advocacy and issue training sessions, interact with Capitol Hill insiders, and visit congressional member offices to ask Congress to pass legislation that supports libraries.

National Library Legislative Day is sponsored by the American Library Association, Chief Officers of State Library Agencies, District of Columbia Library Association, and Special Libraries Association.
Have a look at some of the Issue Briefs to see the topics about which library advocates are talking to members of Congress, such as Privacy and Surveillance (pdf), Copyright Issues (pdf), and No Child Left Behind (pdf).
