Save the Ann Arbor Library is a campaign committee formed by Doug Jewett, self-proclaimed "library aficionado and Public Nuisance",​ in September 2012 to oppose the Ann Arbor District Library's bond measure on the November 2012 ballot. The bond proceeds would be used to demolish the downtown library building and construct a new one; Jewett's objections include some statements about cost, but his predominant positions appear to be architectural and spiritual, opposing the demolition of the existing David Osler- and Alden B. Dow-designed building more than opposing the tax itself.
