WHEREAS, access to quality library service is vital to all Nebraskans; and WHEREAS, cooperation between and among all types of libraries can facilitate and promote the improvement of library programs and services; and WHEREAS, the sharing of material and human resources helps individual libraries meet the challenge of advancing technology, the escalating cost of resources, and the wide disparity of services and resources available to citizens for reasons of geographic isolation or socio-economic position;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT EACH LIBRARY
