I used to have years ago, but all you do is ring their publishers or the papers they write for. Some have come out in support already and been ion the press. The Cilip should have a load of them. Just charm them. When we did the Vat on books thing donkeys years ago loads of them turned out.

Try also Michael Morpurgo, Stephen Fry, Billy Bragg, Gemma Khan , Benjamin Zephaniah, current and previous Poet Laureate, Jeannette Winterton (lives in London as do many others., trawl the press for those who have spoken up., etc etc  get a couple of Lords etc. These people will make the news and up the ante.

Every public library must have a favourite author who has visited or done things for them?

Get on the web, face book etc and put out the word

So sorry can't be there, hope it goes with a swing, and hugely successful.

Is it too late to get out some good supporters? Alan Bennett, FAY Weldon, Will Self, some children's authors, start hitting the phones!?

It's beginning to look like fun - we have Kate Mosse, Alan Gibbons, Philip Ardagh, Dan Jarvis MP (new shadow - keen to learn!), 2 bands, bosses of CILIP, Unison, WI etc, stands with goodies from The Reading Agency (+ assorted  campaigners)
 - and Ed Vaizey on live videofeed as he gives evidence to select committee!!
We hope this lot will attract some press too, so they may be receptive to articulate comments from librarians...

	See you there!

	 

	Remember both the rally and the lobby of MPs. Contact your MP to ask for a meeting in the lobby.

	 

	Please try to bring friends and family, library users and advocates as well as staff.

	 

	Advocates are welcome even if they're not current users that's ok - I want hospitals but I don't want to go in one!. 

	 

	Also other service providers - for example, little children may not use the library on their own but nursery workers, childminders, parents and carers etc get huge benefits from public libraries, or should do.

	 

	Come and meet friends at the CILIP stand. CILIP's currently consulting on library skills for the future across all sectors. Let's make sure there's a proper future for libraries helping people in education, learning and life! Everyone needs a library sometime!

	 

	Look forward to seeing everyone.

	Can you join the Libraries Lobby of Parliament on 13 March?   A working day, near the end of the financial year, so not handy, I know.
	
	I shall be there, and know many who cannot make it, will be there in spirit.

	Subject: Standards: What are they?

	
	Comment

	Continuing with the complete inaction that most library campaigners would define as Mr Vaizey's chief  characteristic, Ed has confirmed in parliament that the Government will not be reintroducing standards for public libraries. Standards were introduced in 2001 but removed in 2009 and replaced by the now defunct MLA's voluntary benchmarks.  Public library authorities have not needed to be measured against any standard since then, much to their detriment.  Wales have, in contrast, continued with standards that have been notably successful in embarrassing councils who fail to sufficiently fund their service.  

	 

	Expect Ed to make much of the funding that ACE are putting into libraries while at the Committee meeting.  Be sure he won't mention though how insignificant they are compared to the funds that the MLA had at their disposal.  They went from £13m for the MLA to £3m for ACE.

	Cllr David Pugh of the Isle of Wight, and whose evidence to the CMS Committee on his role in closing libraries has attracted some criticism and raised eyebrows, is to be interviewed between 12.00 & 1.00pm (Tuesday 6th March) on Vectis Radio regarding library issues.  It should be an interesting for campaigners who, unfortunately, can't phone in to question Ed Vaizey on his inaction but can phone Vectis Radio about Mr Pugh's role from 11 to 12. Ed Vaizey is to be interviewed by the CMS Select Committee on Tuesday 13th March
