This week’s budget allotted $79 million in new funding for public libraries over three years.
This doubles the PLOG (Public Library Operating Grant) annually and considers funding the Ontario Digital Public Library.
This merits thank you letters from CEO’s and Library Boards across Ontario.
Here is a link to a few samples from public libraries across Ontario:
