Advocacy & Public Policy Committee News Alerts v.7 n.9, September 2021 Advocacy & Public Policy Committee News Alerts support the committee's mission to monitor governmental activities and social justice issues affecting the professional interests of ARLIS/NA and to keep the ARLIS/NA membership informed. The monthly alerts are intended to be conversation starters, help members keep up on public policy issues and alert members to new developments. The articles complied in the News Alerts bring to the forefront recent news from a range of perspectives designed to elicit discussion; they are not compiled to represent the views of ARLIS as an organization or the members of the Advocacy and Public Policy Committee. Previous issues can be found here: https://arlisna.org/news/advocacy-public-policy-news-alerts<https://arlisna.org/news/public-policy-news-alerts>.
