I've posted this even in the NFN event site, but also wanted to alert others here as well.

Below are some links to the event and a description for forwarding, posting to your blog, FB, whatever. Help us get the word out and
together we can save all the branches!

Here is the Facebook Event: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?invites&eid=343735720546 make sure to invite yourself and others and RSVP Attending!

Another link you can distribute: http://hubscience.blogspot.com/2010/03/save-egleston-square-save-bo...

I've included other things to do in JP/Egleston on the second page to help draw people to the neighborhood. Feel free to comment with others.

Also, if you or someone you know would be interested in speaking for 5
minutes or so at this event, let me know at brandon (dot) abbs [at] gmail (dot) com. We're trying to reach out to
local authors and kids or adults who need the library to stay in
school, find work, and stay alive.

Thanks!

Help Save Our Boston Library Branches!!




The Library Trustees and Mayor Menino want to close the BPL branches, but
we still have time to save them and public support matters!!



We at the Egleston Square Branch have saved our branch before and are fighting to save it once again. We know all of you are fighting to
do the same.

We want all of the branches to come together and tell the
Trustees in one voice to balance the budget WITHOUT CLOSURES and
WITHOUT REDUCING
STAFF OR HOURS. We want our City & State Reps. and Mayor Menino to
know that they cannot rush these closures through without anyone
noticing. They have our attention and we will not let our our
neighbors lose their jobs, we will not let our libraries close.

Come to the Egleston Square Branch at 2044 Columbus Ave. on Saturday March 13th from 12:00PM - 1:00PM and show your support by reading with
us at The Great Egleston Read-In.

Bring a book (or check one out from us), bring signs, bring your
voice. Help us fill the library and line Columbus Avenue with readers.

We will have speakers voicing their support of the library, but we need
ALL OF YOU to send the message that the public will not let its
libraries be taken away from ANY neighborhood ANYWHERE in Boston.

You can send our message without saying a word and together we can save our libraries!

Organized by the Friends of Egleston Square Library

For those traveling to the branch for the first time, the library is served
by the Stony Brook T-Station, and the #22, #29, #42, and #44 Bus Routes.
