Join us for some coffee and donuts this Thursday, April 13th at 10:30 am and help us celebrate National Library Week. This year’s theme is “Libraries Transform.” National Library Week was created to celebrate the contributions of our nation’s libraries and to promote their continued use.
Spring into action for libraries!
Thursday, April 13th is also designated Take Action for Libraries Day. Take Action for Libraries Day will highlight the library community’s efforts to safeguard funding for the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS), which serves as a critical funding resource for every state, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. territories to support libraries and museums.
You can spring into action by advocating for full funding of IMLS which will safeguard federal funding for our nation’s libraries. The American Library Association (ALA) encourages libraries, library workers, and patrons to make at least five calls to their legislators to ask for full support of IMLS funding. Please support by urging your representative to support IMLS.
