DESCRIPTION:
|
Join us to picket in front of City Council President Eric Garcetti's house! Bring signs and books to read (fewer library hours mean we have to go elsewhere to read)
Bring your friends, children and pets.
The Political Action Committed of the Librarians' Guild is organizing this event to show public dissatisfaction with the City's plan to make disproportionate cuts to the Library budget. The city council and the mayor know that the lay-offs and shortened hours are not necessary to balance the city's budget. During negotiations we demonstrated many other ways to close the deficit without reducing library staff and services, but the city refused to listen. We can only wonder why.
