A Siena College Research Institute poll conducted the week of January 11th for the New York Library Association (NYLA) found that a clear majority of respondents want increased library funding. Nearly 45% of respondents advocated for library aid to increase in proportion with overall education funding, and 30% said library aid should be fully funded under the law.
