This kit is designed to assist academic library staff in launching effective advocacy campaigns.
Advocacy normally has two thrusts, one of education and one of lobbying on an issue or principle.
Please use this kit to develop your lobbying or advocacy campaigns. This kit is the description of the process. Thanks to the Ontario Library Association Office for support and background material. The kits that both OLTA and OSLA had developed previously were used to develop this tool kit for a broader context. The Plan To launch an effective lobbying campaign you must have an action plan with clearly stated goals and objectives, know exactly what your aim is within the organizations, know the people you are lobbying, and have a mechanism for measuring success.
