Text reads: Save Ohio Libraries. What is happening? The Ohio House of Representatives’ budget proposal eliminates the Public Library Fund (PLF). If PLF is cut, libraries will lose about $100 million over the next 2 years. What does that mean for Libraries? Libraries could lose 25% or more in funding. This will mean: - Cuts to programming - like job skills training classes - Ending community supports like library social workers, free tutoring services, lending non-traditional items, and more. - Limiting new materials and replacing outdated materials less often. - In some cases, limiting library hours or closing branches entirely
Text reads: Save Ohio Libraries What can I do? You can tell your Representative that you oppose cuts to library funding. To do this: Find your Representative. Visit ohiohouse.gov/members/district-map and type your address. Get their contact info. When your Representative appears, click the linked district. Click Contact in the white menu bar at the top of the screen. Share your message. You can call or write! For tips, see the next image. Keep it up. There is no limit to the number of times you can contact your Representative. You can also share your message with House Speaker, Matt Huffman, at rep78@ohiohouse.gov.
ext reads: Save Ohio Libraries What should I say? Your message should include: - Your name and the city where you live - A statement, like “don’t cut library funding!” - Personalize it! Share a story about how you use the library. For more tips, see: aclu.org/writing-your-elected-representatives Shortcuts Some libraries have already created web pages to help you get started.

📚💙 Ohio is trying to cut the Public Library Fund. Libraries aren't luxuries. They're lifelines. Free books, internet, job help, after-school programs, and safe spaces for EVERYONE.
Call your reps & say: NO CUTS. PROTECT OUR LIBRARIES.

Ohio’s proposed budget could slash 29% from the Cincinnati & Hamilton County Public Library by dismantling the Public Library Fund.
