Thanks to Sally Gardner Reed for this link on the FOLUSA List Serve.
This two page How Libraries Stack Up! makes great points about how your tax dollar supports our public libraries and the real difference it makes to our communities.
One of the facts that I liked is this "U.S. public libraries circulate as many materials every day as FedEx ships packages worldwide" FedEx shipments - 8.0 million vs. U.S. public library circulation 7.9 million! Make a splash at your library this summer!
As you support your public library - get to know "the stats" about your library, the circulation, the number of people visiting, items in the collection, meeting rooms, etc. Let your elected officials know how important the library is not only to you and your family, but to our communities at large.
Thank you.
