Positive story from WWMT!

Kalamazoo's WWMT Channel 3 aired a positive news story about the millage last night. Check it out at http://tinyurl.com/cfsayp.

KPL is tightening the belt.

KPL Director, Ann Rohrbaugh, reports in her most recent blog post that like many other organizations the library's budget is shrinking. Threats to state aid, flat property taxes, and almost zero interest income means the library will need to make cuts EVEN IF THE MILLAGE PASSES. This means it is even more important that everyone votes "yes" to renewal the millage.

DKI - A vote for KPL, is a vote for Downtown.

Downtown Kalamazoo Incorporated (DKI) has voiced their support for KPL! President Kenneth Nacci states, "As downtown Kalamazoo’s highest traffic generator, binging in nearly 1,000,000 visits annually, we look to the KPL as a major stimulant to the local economy and a central gathering place for the community."
