Kathleen Cronin, head of children's services for New Rochell, NY Public Library, taking a moment to read to a few of the library's younger patrons. Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) supports closing the gap in funding for libraries and providing more operating aid directly to libraries so they can have the resources necessary to meet the growing needs of their communities. This photo and others appeared as a feature in The Work Force, CSEA's monthly publication for union members, along with quotes from members sharing their experiences and speaking of the funding need and encouraging members statewide to take part in the New York Library Association Library Lobby Day on March 13.
