Bill > SR487

This resolution supports the Ray City Community Library's efforts to join the Coastal Plain Regional Library System and receive support from the Georgia Public Library Service (GPLS). The resolution acknowledges that the library has been operating municipally for over 20 years without state support and highlights the importance of gaining membership in the regional library system to access valuable services like interlibrary loan programs, the PINES catalog, professional development opportunities, and potential state and federal funding. The resolution urges various governing bodies, including the Board of Regents and Regional Library Board, to favorably consider the library's application for full membership in the Coastal Plain Regional Library System. Additionally, it recognizes the significant contributions of community volunteers and the library's role in preserving local heritage. The resolution directs the Senate Secretary to distribute copies of the resolution to relevant officials and library boards, emphasizing the community's desire to enhance the library's capabilities and service to local citizens.
