Tell Your Elected Officials to Support Federal Funding for NJ Libraries

New Jersey libraries makes our communities stronger by:

• Helping kids learn to read and succeed in school;
• Providing a place for seniors to learn, teach, and make new friends;
• Assisting job seekers in developing their skills and finding employment, aspiring entrepreneurs in creating new enterprises, and existing businesses in identifying the information they need to stay competitive;
• Serving veterans and others in navigating the benefits they have earned by serving our country.

Please use the form we have prepared for you (or use your own words) and ask your representatives to safeguard federal funding for New Jersey’s libraries. That funding is the difference between being pretty good and being what you have come to expect from us.
