DPL’S NEWS & NOTES

MAY 2013

 

MAY BALLOT ISSUE 6

The Delta Public Library will be going to the polls May 7th to ask our school distric voters to support the Library's operational levy.  Without new levy money Delta Public Library will be closed in two year's time.

This is because our operational levy money is no longer supplemental funding-it is now critical revenue that is necessary to keep our library open and in business.

Increased revenue will allow the library to reinstate public service hours, restore staffing, increase the material budget and update aging technology as well as to institute new services and maintain our facility.

Please promote and support Issue 6 in May. Our Ninety year history and our future now hang in the balance of our voter's support. We cannot continue to exist without that voter support.
