contents Library Legislation is for Special Librarians Too. Soroka, Marguerite C. Federal Programs Financial Support Legislation Library Associations Library Networks Library Services Reference Services Special Libraries Speeches State Programs Library legislation affects all types of libraries, including special libraries. A good example is found in the New York state legislation for Reference and Research Library Resources Systems, in which public, business, industrial, hospital, college, university and historical society libraries are organized into nine regional councils. The 1974 New York legislative program provided for union lists of serials and newspapers, a bibliographic data center, statewide delivery systems, materials preservation, access to materials by scholars, workshops, continuing education programs, collection development, and reference services. The Special Libraries Association should form a legislative committee to work with other library legislative committees at the national level to influence legislation on services, funding, intellectual freedom and obscenity issues, and copyright. In addition, special librarians should form legislative committees at state and local levels, or join with existing committees. The special librarian may also influence legislation by writing to elected officials. (LS)
