Reinstate funding for Library Access including the POWER Library databases

Received this message from Lynn Snodgrass-Pilla, Director, Memorial Library of Nazareth & Vicinity and wanted to pass it along:

State Cuts Have Removed Vital e-Resources Needed by Students and All Library Users

Dear Library Community,

As many of you know, this year’s budget included a 73% cut in the Library Access / POWER Library budget lines.  In preparation for the Governor’s budget message on February 9^th, please contact Governor Rendell and your state legislators, remind them of the impact of these cuts, and urge them to reinstate funding for Library Access including the POWER Library databases that students and the public rely so heavily upon.  

This can be easily done by using PaLA’s Legislative Action Center on PaLA’s website:

Thank you so very much for your action on this important issue,
