Suburban Library System: State funding shortage may doom library systems

lawmakers will have to decide which programs are essential and must be funded and which are not as critical, said state Rep. Ed Sullivan, a Mundelein Republican. It could come down to funding schools or libraries, he said - not both.

Librarians from across the Chicago area will meet with state lawmakers on Monday to decry the situation. The meeting, which isn't open to the public, is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. at the Arboretum Club in Buffalo Grove.  Librarians representing communities such as Algonquin, Arlington Heights, Des Plaines, Elgin, Grayslake, Lake Villa, Libertyville, Mount Prospect, Mundelein, Palatine, Schaumburg and Wauconda will be among those attending the discussion
