Dear Stephen,

Ontario is going to the polls on February 27! OLA and FOPL have revamped their Provincial Election Toolkit to help you advocate for libraries this election season.

The Ontario Provincial Election is a critical opportunity for the library sector to capture the attention of political parties and candidates and secure their support. This will help address the critical gaps that continue to confront Ontario’s libraries and the many individuals and families across the province that depend on them.
In the toolkit, discover:
  • Tips on engaging candidates
  • Questions to ask and key messages to use
  • Templates to request and conduct a meeting
  • Sample social media posts
Upcoming Webinar:
Voting for Libraries: Engaging with Your Local Candidates
The OLA and FOPL are hosting an information session for everyone in the library sector to gather and learn how to best advocate for libraries during the Ontario snap elections. Learn how to best engage candidates and make an informed vote to support libraries ahead of the polls on February 27. You’ll leave the session with key messages, advocacy tools, and renewed confidence!

This session is open to anyone interested in supporting libraries this election.

Date: Wednesday, February 19, 2025
Time: 1:00pm to 2:00pm EST
Cost: No cost; open to members and non-members of OLA & FOPL

Your voice is important! Speaking to candidates during the election campaign – particularly with your local perspective – will provide a critical foundation to our post-election advocacy and ensure we have strong champions for libraries in our next government.
