Massachusetts' State Aid to Public Libraries Program keeps 347 libraries connected. You can borrow from anywhere in the Commonwealth. But when municipalities cut library budgets too deeply, libraries can lose state certification and become "information islands" — cut off from the statewide lending network. Funding your local library is good for everyone!
