dc.description On behalf of the undersigned businesses and nonprofit organizations, we write to request relief for America’s libraries in the next phase of coronavirus legislation. COVID-19 has caused significant revenue losses for libraries, resulting in thousands of furloughs and layoffs to date. Fiscal stabilization is needed to preserve crucial library services for students, jobseekers, and small businesses. We respectfully request that Congress provide $2 billion for fiscal stabilization for libraries through the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services. This funding is needed to keep library workers employed and safe, support distance learning and telework, and expand economic recovery services for our communities.
