Libraries and the economy

| General

Carla Johnson, Cataloging Services Librarian

The other night, I turned on the NBC 6 o'clock news and caught a story on how libraries are gaining in popularity due to the poor economy.  Just when people are flocking to libraries, not only are budgets being cut, but  libraries are being closed.  This is nothing new or surprising in the library world, but I thought it was interesting  that this story was shown on national news.  Perhaps it will trigger some input from library users with their local governments.  (link to news video below)
