Sample correspondence to send to your elected officials (cut and paste or feel free to personalize):
Dear Councilperson,
I support and prioritize investment in our public library. Studies have shown that $1.00 of investment in public libraries reaps a return of $4.64 to the community. We cannot ignore that our library is a safe and efficient investment of our limited public funds. It is a valuable community asset that we cannot afford to let wither.
Our library:
Supports economic growth and opportunity now and for the future.
Provides essential services available to all community members.
Ensures literacy, programming, and information are accessible to all.
