#NILES ILIBRARY SERIES#

Niles-Maine District LibraryвЂ™s staff keep providing services that our community wants and needs, and weвЂ™ll keep showing up for them and doing what we can to get the word out about the reckless cuts Trustees Carolyn Drblik, Suzanne Schoenfeldt, and Joe Makula have forced on all of us. On April 20th many of our organizers, unionized library staff members, and other supporters showed up with signs and leaflets to raise awareness of the unnecessary and destructive hiring freeze that anti-library trustees instituted last May and have refused to lift.

вћЎпёЏ Join us on Sunday May 15th as we unite with our neighbors from Niles, Park Ridge, Skokie, Glenview, Chicago and the surrounding area at our Neighbors United Against Hate event at Jonquil Terrace Park in Niles. About 200 community members and elected officials showed up and shared messages about our opposition to hate and antisemitism.

On April 24th along with allies from Action Ridge, Niles Coalition organizers helped greet attendees at the first of a series of Cook County United Against Hate events. In April we endorsed Skokie Alliance for Electoral Reform and connected with others at their kickoff event: Make Every Vote Matter! WeвЂ™ve been meeting up with our neighbors in Niles, Skokie, Park Ridge, Glenview, and more! Please read below and find out about some recent events weвЂ™ve attended as well as upcoming opportunities for you to join us! More and more community members have been reaching out and folks have been connecting with our organizers at local events. It was the attack on our Niles-Maine District Library that acted as the inciting incident bringing us together to create the #SaveNileslIbrary campaign. Niles Coalition has celebrated the 1 year anniversary of our founding.
