Last week, State Rep @RanjeevPuri stopped by CPL to present Library Director Eva Davis with a certificate from the State of Michigan, celebrating our recognition as a 2024 Top Workplace. We’re so thankful for this honor and proud to be a place where our team can grow and thrive.

We are still learning about how this order will impact our library. Read more about what we know here: https://t.co/7lmaEIGXwi.

A recent executive order calls for cuts to the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the federal agency that helps fund libraries nationwide.

This would result in an indirect loss of funding to CPL through the Library of Michigan, which provides services to MI libraries.

Some of the expected impacts to CPL include the loss of:
• Interlibrary loan through MeLCat
• MeL research databases
• Popular MAP program—Canton residents checked out nearly 700 passes in 2024.
• Reduced efficiencies, buying power, and rate negotiating with vendors.
