Is Your Local School Library Being Threatened?

Right now, across the country, school districts are making budget decisions that will shape the future of students for years to come.

This is the time of year when school library positions are reduced, collections go unfunded, and library programs are quietly put on the chopping block.

But you are not alone. EveryLibrary has been fighting for student access to school libraries for over 15 years.

If your school library is threatened, EveryLibrary is ready to provide pro-bono support to help you protect it.
