 for lack of funds  We MUST not and WILL not allow this to happen  Libraries 
 are the soul of our communities, providing vital services to 
 all–especially the most low-income members and children. If we allow the 
 Salinas libraries to close, we will see a wave of library closings 
 throughout the country. We NEED YOU to help save our libraries!    Join 
 famous authors, poets, elected officials, community folks and book lovers 
 from all over the state for a 24-hour celebration of reading and literacy,

 Salinas. Bring your family, your sleeping bag, and your favorite books!!!  
 We will be calling on Governor Schwarzenegger and other state elected 
 officials to find equitable solutions to pay for the operating costs of our 
 libraries in poorer communities.     Can we unite to keep Salinas libraries 
 open?    Si, Se Puede! Yes, we can!  Contact us for information on 
 carpools, overnight accommodations, etc. Let us know you are coming. Find
