Libraries in Northwest Indiana are sounding the alarm as federal E-Rate funding faces potential elimination — a lifeline that keeps them offering free Wi-Fi, tech upgrades, and essential services during emergencies. With some libraries relying on up to $15,000 annually and one recently approving an $180,000 server project thanks to E-Rate, cuts could force closures, reduced hours, or slashed programs. Patrons depend on these hubs for jobs, taxes, remote work, and staying connected — and librarians are fighting back, urging residents to submit public comments before October 13th to protect this vital community infrastructure.
