Library Advocacy or Library Oddballs?



Folks boarding the bus are heading to Albany for this event.


Citizens Defending Libraries (blog)  Mayor Bloomberg is defunding New York libraries at a time of increasing public use, population growth and increased city wealth, shrinking our library system to create real estate deals for wealthy real estate developers at a time of cutbacks in education and escalating disparities in opportunity. It’s an unjust and shortsighted plan that will ultimately hurt New York City’s economy and competitiveness.

I guess the question is:  Where does newly elected mayor Bill de Blasio stand on this issue?

Here's the  link to NYLA legislative agenda.  You tell me if the two protesters are making sense.
