&lt;p&gt;Having the support of both the local community and government is a major factor in whether or not a public library succeeds. All public libraries are funded by some combination of local, state and federal dollars, but the mix varies depending on location, says library Executive Director Sarah Moore. Some of the ways that a public library may be funded are through the government&amp;#39;s general revenue fund, local levy funding, or through property taxes. Cuts are often being made to these types of funding so public libraries also rely heavily on their local communities to offer support such as donations. Per Moore, part of her job is to make sure her library&amp;#39;s funding is being spent on the materials and infrastructure that will benefit her community most. &lt;/p&gt;
