Say What?!

This mural (located at the Prescott Public Library, Prescott, AZ) shows the importance of my local library throughout history (mad props to the Mural Mice for a fantastic job). But enough of that commie, socialist crap. Folks should PAY to use library resources, right? Say wha???

Yup, the Prescott City council is seriously considering charging Prescottonians for using the Public Library. That's right. The service our tax dollars already fund. 'Cause, y'know, in our continuing economic badness, those people are using it more. The City Council obviously thinks everyone should be at home, using their own computers & internet service & buying all those books themselves. And they are not kidding. Wankers.
