CRITICAL UPDATE!! (08/08/18)

The Middle Georgia Regional Library's funding is still in peril.
The county commissioners voted AGAINST funding the Macon-Bibb Library and other services at the county board meeting on Tuesday, Aug 7th. Instead they decided to table a new vote on funding until the August 28th meeting. You can follow a live tweet session during the meeting here to see how it played out. However, the library will run out of money for three of its branches on August 19th.
We need you to take action today!

     1) Send a 'last ask' email to the Bibb County Commissioners before August 30th using this form.

     2) Share the petition page on Facebook and Twitter - Especially with people you know who live in the county.

     3) And if you live in Bibb County - Macon Georgia, please plan to attend the public hearing on Tuesday, August 28th to make your voice heard. MGRL supporters will be wearing Blue to show their numbers, too.

Macon-Bibb County Commissioners have voted to close the Middle Georgia Regional Library because they could not agree on a budget. The Middle Georgia Regional Library is absolutely vital to our communities. Already the Riverside branch, the Sturling branch, and the Lanford branches are going to close on Tuesday, July 3rd. The Washington branch will only be open as long as reserve funding holds out.


Just $5-10 a month ensures that we can continue our work


And all that the Macon-Bibb County Commissioners need to do to fix these cuts is vote to fund the library. We need your help to get them to do it right away.

Please act now to send a message to the Macon-Bibb County Commissioners that our Middle Georgia Regional Library must remain open and must be funded. Your voice matters. Things are moving fast, so every minute counts. Three out of 4 libraries are ABOUT TO CLOSE ALREADY. Can you please take a moment and help save the libraries across Macon and Bibb County?

Every contact from Macon-Bibb County residents will help. Please share this page on Facebook and Twitter!. Please help turn around these cuts and keep our Middle Georgia Regional Library open!
