While I do not often go to my town library to borrow books, I have donated more than a few tomes. I grew up living off the library, both in Teaneck, New Jersey and in Kinnelon, New Jersey. Instead of going to "home room" in high school, I volunteered in the school library during that period.
Libraries are the sign of an advancing culture. When you cut out funding to libraries, you cut out the soul (and the potentially positive future) of that culture.
A sign of an advancing culture is the libraries it funds. How do yours look?
