Save NYC Libraries

Additional budget cuts will devastate our communities.

NYC Libraries Create Community

WHY LIBRARIES?

Libraries are the glue that holds our neighborhoods together. In good times, libraries provide a space for gathering, sharing our knowledge, and cultivating relationships. During difficult times, libraries are a lifeline that can connect people to critical resources that can better their livelihoods.

LIBRARY PROGRAMS

From language classes, to literacy programs, to career services, libraries offer the pathways for New Yorkers of all ages to thrive.

Funding Libraries = Funding our Communities
