Talking up your Library

During times of Provincial and Municipal elections, it is vital that library employees, trustees, patrons, and supporters create conversation and awareness for our libraries as provincial and municipal funding is essential for our sustainability. The province continues to provide financial support; however, between new Members of the Legislative Assembly and older members setting sites on new projects, there will always be a need to reinforce the importance of public libraries in our province and the need for increasing the financial allocations to them.
