In my last post, I briefly mentioned the Save NYC Libraries postcard campaign. We've been diligently collecting postcards inside and outside the branches. Below is my favorite one so far, which was written by a 10-ish-year-old girl who frequently comes into my library. (I promise that neither my coworker Ally nor I coerced the girl into calling us "beautiful", "nice," or "kind." She's just that loyal.)
Cute, right? If you want to send your own postcard in support of NYC libraries/protesting library cuts, you can send them to the address below. (Councilman Van Bramer of Queens is collecting them on behalf of the city council.)
Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer
47-01 Queens Boulevard

Sunnyside, New York 11104
We're trying to get all "Miracle on 34th Street" on their a$$es in terms of postcard volume, so thank you in advance if you send one. Good luck to us all.
Wow, that nine-year-old has better handwriting than I do...
ReplyDeleteGood luck to all the libraries in NYC!
Same here! (Although now that I think about it, she might be 10 now. I'm not sure. In any case, my handwriting is shameful.) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteJust dropping you a little comment to let you know that I love your blog and I'm your newest follower :) Also, that sweet kid's handwriting is exponentially better than my own lol.

Thank you so much, Kate! I'll check out your blog too!
ReplyDeleteI've already sent my post cards last month. I just hope that the library will be saved by our post cards because I don't want it to close down.
