Libraries are a key factor in childhood and later literacy, as well as providing a haven for many latchkey kids, among numerous other vital services. Please boost funding for Providence libraries!

The library is so important for our family, but it's so hard for us to get there in the limited times that it is open. Please help!

Our neighborhood libraries depend on us in the communities. We are their life line and vein that feeds them .It is a place of knowledge through reading and learning experience through hands on activities for adults , young adults and children.

The public libraries are part of what makes our city great. We need the libraries to extend their hours weekends and evenings for working class adults and students who need a place to study and to use the computers and educational resources.

Knowledge, self-education, access, fun, sociability- all these are necessary for people to be productive and needed and happy. Libraries have provided these opportunities for thousands of years. These are crucial infrastructure components to our educational system. In this age Libraries need MORE commitment and money from the City and State to enhance these opportunities and reach more people - adults, teens, children and tots. As a volunteer and donor to PCL - I exoect our City to step up its support for All the branches of Providence Community Library.

Keeping the libraries open more hours makes sense. Public free libraries are a valuable asset to ALL Providence residents, serving as a meeting place and community center accessible to everyone.

I cannot tell you the number of times I have wished the library was open. The hours tend to go along with school hours. Hard for parents to get there.

My children got great starts at the libraries and since I was new to the state many of my closest friends are people that I met at the library. We need longer hours so kids can have constructive outlets.
