PLA offers a free online advocacy course called Turning the Page, where you can learn skills on how to talk to the legislators and decision makers in your area about the importance of libraries: http://www.ala.org/pla/onlinelearning/turningthepage.

We also have an article here on PL Online that has 23 reasons why a library is the most important place in a town: http://publiclibrariesonline.org/2013/04/community-centered-23-reasons-why-your-library-is-the-most-important-place-in-town/.

Thanks!
