Please Preserve the Public Library Fund

To: Sen. Koehler, Rep. Dean, Gov. DeWine

From: A constituent in South Vienna, OH

April 5

The public library is an essential community resource that fosters literacy, education, and access to information for all. Preserving robust funding for libraries is crucial to maintaining these invaluable services. I urge you to restore the Public Library Fund to Governor DeWine's proposed level of 1.75% of the state's General Revenue Fund. This will prevent a $100 million cut to library funding over the next two years, which would severely undermine the ability of libraries like Mary L. Cook Public Library to provide vital programs and resources that benefit our community. Libraries are drivers of personal growth, education, and economic development. Ensuring their financial stability is an investment in the future of Ohio. I implore you to uphold the Public Library Fund and stand for the continued strength of our public libraries.
