RILA Legislative Day!

9:24AM ON 02/09/2010
BY The Librarienne

Rhode Island Library Association is sponsoring a Legislative Day February 9 on the second floor of the State Capitol building from 1:30 - 4 pm. Come and personally meet with your Representatives and Senators to make a case for Rhode Island libraries. As the economy bottoms out, so does library funding, but use increases. Rhode Island libraries are trying to help more patrons in more ways with fewer hours, less staff, and diminished resources. The library is much more than just a place to borrow a book, and we need to remind people of that.

The slide show from the RILA Snapshot project will be presented to illustrate the wealth of resources, services, and programs that Rhode Island libraries provide to their patrons.

Come show your support!

P.S. There will be snacks.
