“Bad libraries build collections. Good libraries build services. Great libraries build communities.” 📚

That quote from a recent city council meeting regarding proposed budget cuts stuck with me.

Libraries are not just shelves of books. They are safe spaces, gathering places, learning centers, internet access points, job resources, children’s programs, support systems, and one of the few places that truly welcomes everyone. 🤗

Proposed budget cuts don’t just reduce hours or programs — they impact the heart of a community.

Today and every day, we support libraries because strong libraries help build strong communities. 💪
