<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:14.0pt'>Jim Johnson has let me
know that the <b><i>I Support Libraries</i></b> license plate bill (H. 3903) will
be taken up the week of Feb 16-18 by the House Education and Public Works
Committee. Jim will give us an update with the names of people who need
to be contacted to report the bill favorably out of committee. Here is a link
to the actual bill: <a

<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:14.0pt'>Also I’ve attached
the plate image that was designed by Semaphore Inc. for both SCLA and SCASL.
Once this passes, the membership of both associations will need to heavily
promote it because we will need to get a minimum of 400 people to buy the tag
before it can be issued.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
