ANSWER
Updating to stop the drop of our readers
Introduction
The continuous falling in the number of member of our library throughout the last year is a signal that the way people read is changing, mainly due to the newly ebook era. Therefore, we need to update our "marketing line" in order to receive more attention of, specially, teen and young people.
The problem about ebook and digital tools
The way people usually read has been changing for the last ten years, but librarians don't seem to have paid attention to it. It is also true that readers, specially over thirty, remain loyal to the paper format, but we are losing a new generation of readers. More and more, students are getting used to read on a screen, which is a revolutionary change, so they usually have no objection to use ebooks instead of loads of manuals and notebooks. What is more, in a pragmatic sense is better the digital way. In short, because you have multiple search tools and thousands of books at your disposal in your mobile phone. So, why should we keep going to the library? (apart from a free internet connection).
How to attract young people to read on paper
Obviously, we are unable to compete with the giant ebook market, even more with the public funding aim to the only library in the town. Nevertheless, it is possible motivating teenagers and young through the social media (such as facebook, youtube, twitch,...) to visit our library.
Other solution to this problem would be creating a podcast to recommend the "best of" each topic. For example, we could starting saying: "This week I will show you the better science fiction novels...." and ending with: "Don't forget to get your library id, in case you don't".
Conclusion
New technologies are pushing libraries to update the way they attract readers, for that reason, we need to be really creative in order to stop the drop. In this sense, the suggestions that it has been made are just some examples.

"even more with the public funding aim to the only library in the town."
This part of the sentence is confusing and I'm not sure what you mean.
