 Keep Our Fridays!
In January 2010 it was announced that the Library lost $70,000 in government funding this year. As a result, we had to:
- Close Fridays—Update! The Sewickley Valley Community Fund has restored library service on Fridays through the first quarter of 2011.
- Open a half hour later at 10:00 a.m. Monday - Saturday.
- Reduce our staff. The staff reduction has negatively affected customer service by creating longer lines at the circulation desk and longer wait times for materials.
While our Friday service has been restored through the first quarter of 2011, we are still facing hard times. Additional cuts in funding will further jeopardize libraries’ ability to meet increasing demand. Many have asked what can they do to help?
- Call, email and write to Governor Rendell and your state representatives and state senators. Encourage others to write letters. Click here for their contact information.
- Advocate for more funding in the Library State Subsidy line.
- Advocate for funding for non-QVSD patrons
- Advocate for restoration of POWER Library (essential online resources)
- Tell them why Sewickley Public Library is important to you.
- Write letters to the editor. Tell people how you use the library and why it’s valuable.
- Donate to the library as you are able. Round up your fines. Drop change in the jars at checkout. Send a check in support of our annual appeal.
