Glad to hear it, but why should taxpayers have to pay for my reading habits? Shouldn't I be responsible for my own reading materials? Since when is the local government responsible for my video/dvd/novel reading experiences? At any rate, I'm only talking about our own library, which is the size of a football field, with thousands of moldering old books, and virtually no patrons. This monstrosity, which is staffed by a half dozen "sleepers," costs us a mint.
If county funding for the library were withdrawn I would have no problem paying for membership. I agree, it's only fair.
