We Need Your Help!

     As you may have read in the paper, the Borough Council of Frackville has voted as part of its 2009 budget to reduce its support of the library. From a potential appropriation of over $17000-in the past funding has been based on 1 mil of collected property tax revenue-the budget contains only $1000 for the library this year. This shortfall amounts to 20% o our budget! While we can appreciate the difficulties of everyone during these tough times, including the Borough, this harsh decision could mean the dissolution of an organization which has served the community for almost 70 years. Our community has little to recommend it in terms of recreational, technological, and cultural resources. Don't let us lose what we do have! Call the Borough Office and show your support for continued library funding.
