The New Mexico Library Association will hold its annual Library Legislative Day on Thursday, January 28, 2010, to show support for library funding and a 2010 library bond issue. The event will begin with an orientation at the Main Santa Fe Public Library, 145 Washington St. at 8:30 am.
For those attending the orientation, please enter from the staff door that faces the parking lot in back of the Library. Attendees may park at the Library lot free until 10:00 a.m., but must move their cars by 10:15 a.m. The City’s new parking garage next to the Convention Center on Federal, across from the Post Office, charges a maximum of $8.00 a day. It is 2 blocks from the Main Library. There will be snacks and beverages at the meeting.
The special Library Day T-shirts sponsored by NMLA and NMCAL will be distributed at orientation, with a suggested donation of $12.00.
The Library will provide a shuttle at 9:45 a.m. to take attendees to the Roundhouse. There will not be a return shuttle. The Capitol is just over 1/4 mile from the Library. (Be aware that if you plan to try to find a parking place near the Capitol, it is near impossible and the parking enforcement does issue tickets regularly.)
Thanks to Pat Hodapp, Santa Fe Public Library Director, for making these arrangements.
