MAKE SURE YOUR LIBRARY IS STILL SUPPORTED

BY YOUR REPRESENTATIVE

Where does your Representative stand on supporting FY2019 Library Funding?

The American Library Association, state library associations, librarians, supporting members of the public and others successfully fought the measure that would have eliminated 2018 federal funding for libraries. Now we're faced with the federal government's proposal to eliminate 2019 funding for the Institute for Museum and Library Services and virtually all other library funding sources. Your help this year is more crucial than ever.

What can you do? Keep reminding Congress that libraries bring leaders and experts together to solve difficult problems and that we deliver opportunities, from academic success to work-readiness. Invite elected leaders into your libraries to see what libraries do for their constituents with a small investment of federal dollars. To learn more about how to support continued funding for your library, visit ala.org/fundlibraries /.

Thank you from your library staff!
