Dear Governor Wilson:

I am writing to request, as per the enclosed letter, that you declare April 23, during National Library week, Library Support Staff Day in California. As you know, libraries are labor intensive. Without support staff, they cease to function. Your recognition of this fact by declaring April 23 Library Support Staff Day in California, will assist me in my efforts to encourage the development and appreciation of these important staff members in our more than 1,055 libraries throughout the state.

Yours sincerely,

Dr. Kevin Starr
State Librarian of California
