    SO ACTUALLY GOING FINE FREE MEANS THAT PEOPLE WHO AVOIDED THE LIBRARY BECAUSE OF THEIR FINES ARE COMING BACK AND OFTEN THEY'RE THE FOLKS WHO NEED US MOST. ALSO NO, WE HAVE NOT SEEN AN INCREASE IN LOST OR STOLEN BOOKS—IT TURNS OUT WHEN YOU TRUST PEOPLE TO BE KIND TO EACH OT

    We’re shocked to be facing millions of additional cuts to library funding, a devastating development for our already strained operations. Read our statement and sign a letter to the administration urging them to stop the cuts: investinlibraries.org/#statement
