They MUST Be Maintained!

As someone who volunteers at a public library and has seen just about everything they can do, I can say with absolutely certainty that they’re some of the most important things we’ve got. They help spread literacy, information, and education, they serve as public gathering places, and they provide free educational programs and activities for people of all ages. They’re some of the most welcoming, safe (librarians in my area at least actually are required to go through training on how to deal with weapons, drugs, and other unfortunate circumstances), and useful places we have.
