This is our news here. As of March, all 15 of our county libraries will close their doors until some other form of financing is found.
How very troubling that such a wonderful service may go the way of the dinosaur.
The head of our library system has decided to retire Jan 1,saying it has nothing to do with this recent turn of events... but has offered to help stay on part-time to help with the closing of all the branches.
and we pay taxes why?...I shudder to think of some of the things tax dollars are spent on instead of our public services.
Stay tuned.
County loses Grants and will close all 15 Library Branches

I'm really sorry to hear that they decided libraries were expendable.
