Holocaust Encyclopedia defines a concentration camp as “Functioning outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.”

I work in 2 libraries and here’s what my community would lose if we closed:

✖️Pre-k, afterschool, homeschooling AND summer programs
✖️We hired high schoolers and pay them out of pocket to tutor elementary school kids at no cost to parents
✖️Senior tech assistance
✖️Our Library of Things which includes
Dear Congress,
Libraries are the place we all belong. The place where Mister Rogers’ neighbors collide at the library to help one another. We come together to embrace library joy. What good is the world without libraries and museums? ❤️‍🩹

Call, email Congress! Help libraries & museums! We need you 💛
