*Advocacy & Public Policy Committee News Alerts v.8 n. 5, May 2022*
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 compiled 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.
