March 27-28 Weekend

Filed In:

In looking at the calendar, it seems that only Stephanie is scheduled the weekend of March 27-28 while I'm in Portland.  Did I not update the calendar correctly? Does anyone have that weekend down to work? If not, are you able to cover one or both weekend shifts?

Take Action! Speak Out about State Funding Cuts for Libraries

Filed In:

Take Action!Library supporters all over the state are telling the NYS Legislature to reject the $2.4 million cut in Library Aid Governor David Paterson is proposing in the 2010-2011 Executive Budget.

This will be the fifth cut in less than two years and will bring statewide Library Aid down from $102 million in 2007 to $84.5 million in 2010. These cuts combined total an $18 million or 18% reduction in funding for library services. Libraries are part of the community safety net—they are essential to life-long learning, jobs and opportunity, quality of life and community empowerment.

If you agree, do your part and take action!
