Libraries are an essential foundation of our society, and are especially important to the poor and underprivileged as a critical resource for educational resources and internet access. Drastically reducing funding is a severe mistake.

Please don't defund your public libraries. Libraries are so much more than book lending. They provide literacy programs, internet access, aid for job seekers, and a safe haven for youth. To invest in your library system is to invest in your community and empower the people who need it the most.

Library of Alexandria was destroyed by ignorance. Do not let the same happen to the libraries of Missouri.

Public libraries are vital to supporting the diverse range of Missouri citizens. The Governor is showing a blatant disregard for the well-being of his constituents by refusing them services they are owed and deserve.

I live 35 miles from any town in my area. Getting books and audiobooks from the lebanon library is very important to me. I truly appreciate the service.
