Keep speaking, a film is good, spread the word, etc. but from my perspective nothing beats just being out there (if you've got the personality for it, to push the Library agenda) it means networking and collaborating and building relationships with many other institutions so they notice when you are NOT at the table. It has to mean being willing to explore a future without books and libraries as we know them, because that idea is on the table. Abigail Yasgur
