The Toronto Public Library — the largest system in North America, and the second-largest in the world — is in trouble.

This report on the fiscal actions taken

Want to protest the budget cuts? You can let Toronto Mayor David Miller know how you feel:

Mayor David Miller
Toronto City Hall
2nd Floor
100 Queen St. West
Toronto ON
Canada M5H 2N2

Phone: 416-397-CITY (2489)
Fax: 416-696-3687
Email: mayor_miller@toronto.ca

I, of course, am protesting on my own behalf (and in my capacity as a past writer-in-residence for TPL and the current recipient of the TPL Celebrates Reading Award), but the more angry voices Mayor Miller hears, the better.
