Libraries are worth the investment
Every $1 of funding to Georgia’s public libraries produces $3.75 in value.
Georgia public libraries provide economic impact and services worth $1 billion annually. Libraries provide tremendous value in return from the investment of public dollars and private donations. Libraries are foundational to our communities, providing value to Georgians that far outweighs their costs.
