We the undersigned, fear that privatization of some or all of the operations of the Toronto Public Library will result in the closure of local branches, as well as the limiting of hours of operation, staff cuts, an increase in user fees, a reduction in services, and fewer books. All of this would be in the name of making a profit.

Privatization would also mean that a precious public service, the pride of all great cities, would be lost to Toronto.

We are therefore urging you to keep Toronto's Public Library public and working for its citizens, rather than for a corporation.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
