Dear CSLA “Best Seller” for
Thank you for your long-term advocacy for strong
As a reminder, the California School Library Association’s “Best Sellers” Campaign for Strong School Libraries is a grassroots advocacy campaign where teacher librarians and library advocates invite Californians of all ages who already care passionately about student success, reading, and libraries to become “official” spokespersons or “Best Sellers.”
“Best Sellers” incorporate several key messages into their talks, songs, presentations or writings. The core message is: “Strong school libraries build strong students. Strong school libraries increase student achievement, regardless of a community’s socio-economic status.” This is well-supported by research studies, and needs to be well-communicated. That is why “Best Sellers” are so important. Attached is a flyer with a list of questions to ask when you visit schools. Please let me know if you have questions or would like to talk with me about any ideas you have for sharing this message.
I look forward to working with you.
Sincerely,
YOUR Name
