Public Libraries are Valuable to the Community. They're much more than a personal money saver (even though using them will save you money).

As a place to hold food and goods drives. Libraries often serve as drop off points for food drives, clothing drives, school supplies drives, and more. Picture of a box intended to drop nonperishable food for a collection at the Bellefonte Library. Centre County Library & Historical Museum logo. PA Forward Gold Star Program logo. Libraries are Essential.
As a place for community meetings. Local organizations, clubs, and educators often use library space to meet and host events. Picture of a event happening with a large group of people in the Community Room of the Bellefonte Library. Centre County Library & Historical Museum logo. PA Forward Gold Star Program logo. Libraries are Essential.
As a crucial resource for job seekers. Job seekers are always welcomed at libraries where they can utilize computers, printing and copying resources, and staff expertise to apply for jobs.

Public #libraries are much more than a personal money saver: they add value to your #community! When you support a public library, you support the thousands of people that use them everyday to borrow books, use computers, attend events and more.

Libraries are more than buildings — they’re gateways to opportunity, learning, and connection. That's why I am thrilled to celebrate Hillcrest's reopening.
Proud to keep fighting for the resources Queens families deserve. 📚 #LibrariesAreEssential
Book showing an address of Wauconda, Il. Pronounced (at least in my head) Wakanda.
I order used books to fill my classroom library… but this is the first time I’ve ever gotten a book from Wakanda😂😂😂 I mean…Wauconda.
Wauconda, Illinois
Amazing.

No matter where you live, everyone who cares about their community should be going down, getting a card and using their local library. ❤️ #UseItOrLoseIt #LibrariesAreEssential

I don't buy many books... I prefer to check them out from the library. However, I couldn't resist snatching one of these off the top of a display at @barnesandnoble.com yesterday 🐙🩵🪸 #booksky #reading #books #readmorebooks #librariesareessential #think

The Madison Public Library made a tool to estimate the value you get out of your public library: https://www.madisonpubliclibrary.org/about/value
I guess it's specific to the Madison library, but I think the estimate is good for any US-based public library.
For my own usage, it tells me that […]
Trump is attempting to destroy federal funding for libraries.

Libraries aren’t obsolete—they’re lifelines.
From job seekers to curious kids, seniors to struggling families, libraries serve everyone.
Defund ignorance, not access to knowledge.
Support your local library.
