Join us at Root Access as we team up with Fresno's Friends of the Library to write as many letters and postcards as we can. All to ask our Fresno County Board Supervisors to not privatize the Fresno County Public Library. We love our Fresno County Public Libraries and we want to stay connected to the Central Valley through the San Joaquin Valley Library System.

The city is actually thinking of making their own libraries. Its been floated ever since the LGBQT+ got taken down this year. Its just talk ATM and I expect the state may get involved if the county actually follows though. There is also private individuals thinking of making their own public libraries if this goes though. Crazy unpopular.
