@guerrillarain And don't forget #libraries! Using them, funding them, donating books to them (which can be a form of funding, if the library has a used book store from donated books), and maybe even make some niche libraries for friends/neighbors with https://inventaire.io/welcome #books#library
@bthall A problem I noticed with one of my area's libraries: donated books were immediately sold, but the library itself hasn't gotten many new books in more than a decade.
@lnxw48a1 Huh, I wonder why that is. It seems like my library alone has a decent stream of new books, both particular to that location itself and within the library's network (there's multiple locations in #Sacramento County).
In my county, schools and "public safety" (mostly police, but some extra scraps of funding go to fire and paramedics) take so much of the budget that libraries and roads are neglected.
