…and so does most of the Anchorage Assembly!
Not only did they support Mayor Sullivan’s B budget, they voted 10 to 1 to increase library funding by $100,000 for materials. It isn’t the $400,000 increase we requested, but absolutely better than nothing! We are calling this the B+ budget, and really appreciate the assembly recognizing the importance of Anchorage Public Library to our community!
Thank you to:
Ernie Hall
Patrick Flynn
Elvi Gray-Jackson
Jennifer Johnston
Bill Starr
Debbie Ossiander
Harriet Drummond
Dick Traini
Paul Honeman
Adam Trombley
Thank you also to all the community members and library advocates who came out to show their support of our libraries.
Here’s hoping that increased funding stays in the final budget!
