Save Our Libraries

Libraries are needed most when times are difficult!

2009 NYLA Lobby Day Plans


The Governor's proposed state budget for 2009-10 would be devastating for libraries, library systems, and library users throughout New York. The proposal calls for a 18% cut in funding for 2009 on top of the 3% cut that occurred in 2008. When adjusted for inflation, this would virtually wipe out all state aid increases of the last two decades and leave library funding at the 1993 level.
