Election Education Efforts in the Swing States

Since LJ Publisher Ron Shank’s September 2007 editorial challenging libraries to make 2008 the “year of election education,” we’ve published two follow-up articles (LJ 12/24/07, LJ 2/4/08) surveying libraries’ election-education practices in the months leading up to November 4—everything from special displays to mock elections. With the Election Day a week away, we conclude with an informal look at libraries’ best practices in some swing states: the southern Mountain States, the Rust Belt, and Florida.
