I Support Libraries

(4888 signatures)

Governor Strickland plans to cut $2,300,000 from the Dayton Metro Library’s budget in addition to the $4,000,000 that has already been cut in 2009. Another $4.7 million would be cut in 2010. These cuts would effect all of Ohio’s libraries and, if approved, would have devastating results.

We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who oppose these cuts and want to keep strong libraries in our state. We urge our leaders to act now to make sure these cuts are not approved.

45	Finger, Kortney	08/25/09 3:58 pm	Brookville	The library is a good place for people, in college like myself. My printer broke and many of my classes require typed assignments and I need a place to go and print those assignments off.
