| 7 | Christopher David Hale | I believe it is appalling that a community is supposed to suffer a casino in their neighborhood, but can not count on the city to fund essential programs such as libraries. |

| 17 | Joseph Idell | I work at a library and I realize that these branches of the free library are very important to promoting literacy in neighborhoods. Please consider reducing cuts or shifting cuts to other departments! |
| 18 | Frances G. Martin Ph.D. | There are few qualities more empowering to individuals than literacy. I would hope that our new mayor, who has advocated support for children and those in need, would not turn his back on those same individuals with this effort. |

| 33 | Andrea Kline | I cannot believe that the city would close 11 library
branches- growing up, the Wadsworth branch was my branch. I could never have afforded even a small portion of the books I borrowed to read. |

| 44 | Sandra Steinhoff | The Philadelphia libraries, ESPECIALLY in the more disadvantaged neighborhoods MUST stay open! They are a haven of knowledge, culture, fun, warmth, and SAFETY for countless children and other people, who will not be able to travel to alternative locations further away. |
| 45 | Mike Supplee | Our kids need these liaries to stay open, so they can learn to read! |
| 46 | Mark B. Cohen | Branch libraries are vital to the future of the city of Philadelphia. We ought to be considering how to expand services offered by existing libraries and create new ones, not in cutting out libraries serving persons of moderate means in order to enable tax cuts for the most affluent. |
