They're in trouble due to a new budget proposal calling for an elimination of 32% of staff (money the Zombies will use to fund the eating of more human brains, made feeble by lack of reading), which would DECIMATE all library services. Even if you're not a library user, you can be a library supporter and help people young and old who depend on the library for basic services. What can you do to help? Well you can sign the petition (you don't have to be from Chicago) at savechicagolibraries.com. They need 10,000 signatures and only have just over 4000. After that you can call or email your Alderman and let them know you support FULLY FUNDING THE LIBRARY.
