About the Great Falls Library Mill Levy

After extensive research and consideration, the Great Falls Public Library (GFPL) has proposed a critical levy to be placed on the June 6th special election ballot. Our local library provides access to materials and services that improve the quality of life for our community's residents. However, without additional funding, the GFPL will be forced to reduce its already minimal operational hours and services. This will leave our community's most vulnerable residents without access to these necessary services.

The Proposed Library Mill Levy will:

Continue and expand early literacy and afterschool programs;

Expand homebound services for the disabled and seniors;

Provide computer and technology classes and expand support for job seekers;

Provide a College Readiness Program for teens which includes literacy programs, test prep, and application assistance.
