Firm lines are
Centered,
Yielding
Without.
This Flows
With the Tao of Heaven;
It resonates with people.
The Folk are led by Joy;
They forget toil.
Hardship
Is faced with Joy.
Death forgotten.
Great Strength of Joy
Elevates
The spirit of the Folk!
Lake joins with Lake,
Conjunctio lacuum.
The True and their friends
Converse;
They practice together.
Joy is
West,
Autumn.
The Myriad Things
Rejoice.
It is
Sheep,
Mouth.
Youngest child.
Marsh,
Lake,
Shamaness.
Tongue.
Destruction,
Bursting open.
Of soils,
Hard and salty.
It is concubine.

Many thanks to the folks who lobbied up at the Capitol and sent messages on New York Library Advocacy Day; our efforts have been noticed!
Have a look at the good news from New York Library Association Executive Director Jeremy Johannesen. Please follow the links and speak up for library funding before the NYS budget is signed — April 1st!
D. R. Evarts Library thanks you!
Greetings New York Library Community,
Both the NYS Senate and NYS Assembly have released their one house budget bills which signals the final stretch before adoption of the state budget...
Senate
State Library Aid: over Governor’s Executive Budget +$8M ($99.6M total)
State Library Construction Aid: +$15M ($29M total)
Assembly
State Library Aid: +$4M ($95.6M total)
State Library Construction Aid: +$11M ($25M total)
These adds are a testament to the hard work and commitment of New York’s library advocates. Thanks to your efforts, we currently have support in each house heading into final negotiations with the Governor.
But, remember these numbers are mere proposals, and nothing is assured. Unless we convince the legislature to dig in and defend library funding, we still face Governor Cuomo’s funding cuts!
WE NEED YOUR HELP TO DEFEND LIBRARY FUNDING - NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT!
Use our pre-drafted letter to voice your support for fully funding NYS Library Aid in the FY 2017-2018 Budget. TAKE ACTION NOW!
Even if you have already written to your representative, please follow this link to send this NEW message to your legislators that library funding is NOT NEGOTIABLE! After you submit your name and address you will have the opportunity to view and EDIT our pre-drafted letter. Our system determines your elected representatives based on your address, and submits your message directly to their inbox. Copies are also sent to key members of the Legislature.
SHARE this information widely – this is our last chance to be heard!
