1/3 of library support, the district will experience severe reductions in workforce, services and operations including: hours open to public; keeping collections current and facilities in good repair; maintenance of computer and network infrastructure resources;
and providing programs for children’s reading and learning such as early literacy events, online research, homework and tutoring services. The proposed rate will raise approximately $277,937 in 2017-18; $282,666 in 2018-19; $287,466 in 2019-20; $292,336 in
