Passing on this meeting notice from the Friends of the S End Library. If you use our library at all, we encourage you to attend.
The Friends of the South End Library (FOSEL) is sponsoring a meeting with South End state and city representatives to discuss the proposed closings of up to a third of BPL neighborhood libraries.
It will be held on Wednesday, March 24 at 6:30 PM at the South End Library.
FOSEL has asked the representatives to update us on the short-term crisis as well as inform us how, for the long-term, we can empower them to be the strongest library advocates they can be.
Attending will be Senator Sonia Chang-Diaz, Representatives Byron Rushing and Aaron Michlewitz, and District City Councillors Bill Linehan and Chuck Turner. At-large city councillors have been invited, too.
In addition, the office of Governor Deval Patrick is sending Under-Secretary of Administration and Finance Matt Gorzkowicz , while Brian Gosselin, one of their assistant budget directors, may also attend.
Looking forward to seeing you there,
Marleen Nienhuis, President,
Friends of the South End Library,
617 236-4077
