SIGN THE PETITION

Keep the mission of Fund Our Future Washington alive!

As you know, Fund Our Future Washington made astounding progress this year promoting and securing a budget line for school library resources for the 2008-2009 school year. This work continues and it needs YOUR help to continue on.

Nearly 6,000 Washington residents have signed the petition asking the Legislature to fund school library programs in Washington state and ensure that all students have access to quality library programs and information literacy skill instruction. The goal...10,000 Washington citizens to step up and let the Legislature know that school libraries are an important part of a student's basic education.

WLMA members- I know it is the end of the year, we are all racing toward the finish line of the school year, but we need you to do one last thing for your students and teachers...please make a commitment to have 5 people sign the petition who haven't already. It is easy, straightforward, and will do a lot in making the Fund Our Future Washington mission be a reality for all students in Washington state.
