In 2004, the State Library and Archives of Florida contracted with a research team to measure taxpayer return on investment in Florida's libraries.

Florida's public libraries return $6.54 for every $1.00 invested. 

For every $6,488 of public support (federal, state and local), one job is created. 

For every dollar of taxpayer support for public libraries in Florida, Gross Regional Product increases by $9.08.

For every dollar of taxpayer support for public libraries in Florida, income (wages) increases by $12.66.

The FTC is warning consumers that they could get stung by an economic stimulus scam.  The scams come in different forms.   Right now, on the Web and in e-mail, scammers are telling consumers they can help them qualify for a payment from President Obama's economic stimulus package. All they have to do is provide a little information or a small payment.
