Library News Can Sometimes Be Exhilarating

This morning Daniel and I read that the county library has just been allocated an additional 195,000 for 2008. This news makes me think that the universe sometimes makes a whole lot of sense. Because as the article suggests, there were approx. 100 Friends of the library in attendance, and as motley as we are, library supporters have one thing in common--they have a passion for their libraries. It seems that the Board took all things into consideration and made an excellent decision. How I love reporting this.

Kudos to Derek Wolfgram and the Friends of the Libraries for organizing such support, and kudos to the Board of Supervisors for doing the right thing. I can't describe how good it feels for having been a small part of this decision-making process. I figure it's a good idea to write the Board a thank you note, then we'll be off to the library.

In other news, Wimbledon is on rain delay. Big surprise.
