HELP US END OUR FUNDING NIGHTMARE
Your help is still needed! To avoid having to eliminate needed services, we have made it easy for you to contact state legislators by supplying the stationery, pens, and talking points. You write it, we’ll stamp it and mail it! Look for the stationery and the basket to put your letters in on the long table right in front of the Reference Desk.
If you’re better at speaking than writing, please use the telephone at the Circulation Desk to call Harrisburg and tell John Pippy and Matt Smith how concerned you are about library funding. A handy list of talking points is right next to the phone.
