FAME and our partners at the Grey Robinson firm strive to communicate and strengthen our voices for our libraries.

We urgently request ALL members to contact their representatives and senators regarding our requests and share your story to help craft a message in support of all public, private, and charter school libraries in the state of Florida.
We continue to advocate for the inclusion of library media specialists in any state initiatives because we believe that all library media specialists are literacy leaders. Our first priority is to ensure every student in the state of Florida has equal access to media programming and award-winning literature for self-selected independent reading.

FAME will continue to support our students' right to read and stand behind our members in their efforts to provide for the students they serve.

Your voice matters. You can have a tremendous impact on libraries and students in Florida by working to ensure student access to quality resources. Please join us in advocating for the students of Florida.
