Thanks so much Perez for posting this. As an Ohio library employee and future college freshman my job and my library mean everything to me. I see families that cant afford much during this economy come into our library everyday. The look on their childrens faces when they can get movies and read books is priceless. Our libraries are so important to us Ohioans. I know that everyone is very thankful for you making this post!! Thanks again for supporting this worthwhile cause!

Thanks Perez! As an Ohio library worker and future college freshman my job is more important to me than anything. Especially with the way the economy is. I know all of us in the ohio public library system appreciate this attention to the issue that affects the lives of so many in our great state and country.

As most others have said, thanks for posting this. I've emailed all the state representatives already this past week and I've encouraged all my friends to do the same. I live in a tiny town and the library is pretty much the only source of entertainment around!

Yay Perezito for putting this on your site. As a native Ohioan, I love my local library! I also feel as some others mentioned on this site, that in this economy, a lot of people really need their local library for job research or computer usage or to just plain read a newspaper!
I live in SE Ohio and it is one of the poorest regions of the state. There is often a wait for people to get on the computers and it is not all teens! There are many adults that need to come in to look for work or work on resumes, etc. Plus, our libraries just rule! One of the greatest thing I loved about our library system was the bookmobile! If you lived in a rural area, like I did as a child, you could go to the bookmobile and pick out books, order others, and return books. I would REALLY hate to see that go! I am a voracious reader and love to see people go to the library and enjoy all that it offers.

Thank you for featuring this and bringing this to others' attention. I am from Ohio and grew up going to the local libraries with my grandmother almost weekly.
