NEW: ALA is going to court to stop the President’s attempts to illegally dismantle the Institute of Museum & Library Services.

The President does not have the authority to destroy a federal agency. That's why we're taking action with our co-plaintiff @afscme.bsky.social. #ForOurLibraries (1/3)

Federal funding for libraries is disappearing.
The government just pulled support from the IMLS, the only agency that helps keep rural and small libraries alive.
