The
Institute of Museum and Library Services, among other federal agencies, have been targeted for elimination or drastic cuts. See list from
USA Today (3/17/17).
IMLS funding supports Indiana State Library, InfoExpress, Evergreen, LSTA grants and so much more. We should do our part to make sure our members of Congress understand the importance of this federal funding in support of libraries.
- Contact your member of Congress through ALA's action center.
- Email Lucinda with a few bullets of how your community benefits from federal library funding.
- Recruit one "mover and shaker" in your community to join a sign-on letter in the coming month (more info coming soon).
