I’m calling BS.

1. I haven’t seen a picture of this alleged CD. Was it date stamped with a withdrawal date?

2. CD sales were just about catching up with tape sales, while albums were fading in 1989. If a library had an investment in vinyl, I don’t see them rushing out to buy CDs that year or in prior years - after all, they’re the govt and always crying for money.

I think it is very possible, that is is a publicity stunt to get people to visit the library.

Yes, this was a library. When I was young you like you I spent many happy hours here.

Interesting.

I found the original source for the graphic, the original is highly interactive.
