AALL has a strong commitment to serving its members through its Government Relations program, and maintains an office just a few blocks from our nation’s Capitol. Through these efforts, AALL works on information policy issues affecting law libraries at the national, state, local and international levels. Our government relations program is developed in accordance with
AALL's Government Relations Policy, and in consultation with AALL’s three policy committees: the Copyright Committee, Digital Access to Legal Information Committee, Government Relations Committee, and, where necessary or appropriate, the President or Executive Board of the Association.
