***Apologies for any cross postings*** If you’d like to help bring attention to the President’s Executive Order that includes defunding the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), here are some simple but meaningful ways to get involved: 1. Understand the Executive Order Read the Executive Order (EO) itself so you’re informed about its content and implications. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/continuing-the-reduction-of-the-federal-bureaucracy/ ALA has a great FAQ page to help understand the implications of the EO: https://www.ala.org/faq-executive-order-targeting-imls This article gives a breakdown on the EO: https://americanlibrariesmagazine.org/blogs/the-scoop/white-house-attacks-libraries/ 2. Read the Vermont Library Association’s (VLA) Statement The VLA has issued a response outlining how this order would impact the Vermont Department of Libraries and the services they provide and ultimately everyone in our communities. Please find that below. 3. Explore Action Items from EveryLibrary and ALA Both EveryLibrary and the American Library Association (ALA) have created action platforms in response to this threat: Sign the EveryLibrary petition: https://www.everylibrary.org/statementimls2025 Fill out the ALA’s “Show Up for Libraries” form, (https://oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net/messages/edit?promo_id=23577) be sure to personalize it—especially by describing how IMLS LSTA funding specifically supports your library and community. Note: These platforms send auto-generated emails to elected officials, but you can make an even stronger impact by calling directly. 4. Contact Vermont’s Congressional Delegation Call Senators Welch ((202) 224-4242) and Sanders ((202) 224-5141), and Representative Balint ((202) 225-4115). You’ll likely reach voicemail, which is perfectly fine—leave a message! Here’s a sample script: “Hi, my name is [Your Name] and I’m a resident of [Your Town]. I’m calling to urge [Senator/Representative] to oppose any efforts by this administration to defund or abolish IMLS. IMLS is essential to Vermont libraries—it provides funding we rely on to support [briefly mention a local program or service]. This funding is critical to meeting the educational, economic, and community needs of Vermonters.” 4. Share these calls to action with your friends, family, and colleagues. 4. Create a bookmark to put into all books that you lend through ILL that includes the following: InterLibrary Loan is a service funded through Federal funds with a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. (Thanks to NH Librarians for this idea!) If anyone creates one they can share, please do! Vermont Library Association Statement of Support of the Institute of Museum and Library Services President Trump’s Executive Order to dismantle the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) poses a serious threat to Vermont’s libraries and the communities they serve. The elimination or drastic reduction in functions and funding of IMLS would effectively strip away essential Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) grants and other federal support that Vermont relies on to sustain its library network. The impact of this Executive Order would have profound consequences across Vermont, where libraries are lifelines—especially in rural and underserved areas. Vermont’s libraries depend on IMLS funding to support critical initiatives outlined in the state’s 2023–2027 Library Services and Technology Act Five-Year Plan. Without these federal investments, Vermont would lose vital programs that: Enable resource sharing between small libraries that cannot independently maintain comprehensive collections; Provide training and continuing education to library staff, many of whom serve in communities struggling to attract and retain qualified professionals; Sustain the ABLE Library, which ensures equitable access to reading materials for those who are blind, dyslexic, or print disabled; Support youth and early literacy programming, helping children build lifelong learning habits from an early age; Deliver li

Happy New Year, VACDaRN Steering Team! I am delighted to announce that Jane Cadwalader started as Roving Archivist for the VHRP (and a co-lead for this great group) on January 2nd. Jane is from Tempe, Arizona and first became interested in cultural heritage as a profession while volunteering at the Rosson House Museum in Phoenix (2006-2017). Informed by her volunteer work and interest in cultural heritage, she earned a bachelor’s degree in art with a concentration in Museum Studies (2017) at Arizona State University. Jane then earned a Masters in Archives and Records Management (International Pathway) in 2018 from the University of Liverpool. She joined the Arizona State Archives in 2019 as a contractor and became an Archivist. We are lucky to have her. We are looking to meet in February. Please note your availability by Wednesday January 22: https://www.when2meet.com/?28467665-xiKcS We have set up a recurring Zoom meeting.

So good to spend time with many of you all today. I wanted to pass along a story that really moved me today. It’s about mutual aid, resilience, and the deep tradition of ballads in Marshall NC—one of many artistic traditions that build community bonds in the wake of hardship. (I also really loved the PPE fashion show at the end!) https://outsideinradio.org/shows/the-ballad-and-the-flood?_gl=1*crp0u4*_gcl_au*Nzg3ODQwMDkuMTczMjMwMjA3NQ.. My friend Sarah Rooker (who many of you may know as director of the Flow of History and director of the Norwich Historical Society) shared this with me today. She has a brother who lives in Marshall and is part of recovery efforts (and has also worked on recording local ballads). She reached out to me because she knows my connection to WNC but mostly in order to connect him with folks at Montpelier Alive and the Montpelier Commission on Recovery and Resilience--a FEMA person had mentioned business district recovery efforts in Montpelier to him as a model. Anyway, thought you might enjoy it. All best, amy Amy Cunningham Deputy Director Vermont Arts Council 136 State Street Montpelier, VT 05633-6001 802.402.4953 pronouns: she, her, hers Vermont. Arts.
