| 1205 | Christine Du Bois-Buxbaum | As a Trustee of the Lansdowne Public Library I am dismayed by this proposed cut. I know times are tough and there is little room for discretionary spending anymore, but the hardship that closed libraries will pose to families will be immense. |
| 1206 | Bethea Eichwald | The libraries of Philadelphia are central to the life of neighborhoods. Libraries are not found in most schools, librarians help students with homework, they reduce class inequities caused by the digital divide by providin internet access to families, and this is extremely important when people look for jobs. Keep these libraries open. |

| 1224 | Ayishah Berry | How can you justify giving the Mummers over 300 k and then still close libraries. I thought there was a budget deficiet. |

| 1230 | Anonymous | Please do whatever it takes to keep the Philadelphia libraries open. The economic situation is difficult, but this is precisely why we need to keep libraries operational. Freedom and accessibility of information are vital to the strength and identity of our country and must be ensured if we are to weather the economic storm. |

| 1232 | Cynthia Hawkins | Libraries with reading are the backbone of cultural and social development! |
| 1233 | Anonymous | The youth in underprivileged neighbothoods need their Libraries. I am an informed person today because I had access to my neighborhood Library at 40th & Walnut St from the time I could travle by myself until today. I am 81 years old and regularly patronize my Libray. |
| 1234 | Sandhya Purohit Caton | I now live in Iowa, but was a Philly resident for 10 years (1994-2003) and though a graduate student with access to top-notch research libraries, was and remain grateful for the comforting welcome of the local and central branches of the FLP. I plan on donating $5 in the name of each person on my Christmas list. Libraries are a treasure that should not be closed! |

| 1236 | Aliya Rogers | Thank you for taking up a worthy cause. Please keep all of our libraries open! |
| 1237 | risa mandell, lcsw | Our libraries are part of our civic lifeblood. Surely, there are non-essential appendages which could be cut instead. |

| 1243 | Eric Baugher | We as a society can not close down what allows us to learn & grow and better our society. Is there any better way than free knowlege within a community. My thoughts also apply to inner city schools. It is a shame and an embarrasment to all americans that have worked hard to live in this country. |
| 1244 | Lou Incognito | We need a bailout. Transfer Wall Street money to the cities. |
