The Brooklyn Public Library needs your help keeping their doors open. At a time when Brooklynites are using their libraries more than ever, BPL faces a budget cut of $17.5 million.

A $17.5 million budget cut would:

• ELIMINATE as many as 272 positions – that's one out of every four full-time BPL employees.
• REDUCE service to five days a week at most neighborhood libraries – with limited weekend hours.
• Buy 185,000 FEWER books, DVDs and CDs

Contact your elected officials. There's a way to do that on the BPL web page.
