The bicameral Library Stabilization Fund Act, introduced in Congress July 2 proposes 2 billion for library support.
Stabilization funding would support a range of library services to patrons, enabling libraries to:
- Maintain core library services and keep nearly 370,000 library workers on the job
- Purchase cleaning and PPE supplies and train staff for safe re-opening
- Expand technology and services to keep millions of library users connected to the internet
- Strengthen collections and programs to address needs such as remote learning, job skills, access to government services and early literacy
