Literally every city project turns to sh*t.

Where are all the young scholars going to go to read Shakespeare while this library is closed?

Someone flushed a bunch of drugs down the sewer and clogged it. BRPD under funded.

Sorry, ate lunch up Perkins Road. The "Sonic Blast" hit me right at Glasgow.

Clearly the new library plumbing is not up to gut rumble standards for strength or capacity.

I use my local library because to print things out because I’m too cheap and lazy to buy a printer that I would use maybe 4 times a year.

Because free access to knowledge and stories is a good thing.

So then why build this one at a cost of a few million?

I'd honestly love for library security camera footage to be reviewed for how many people actually use Public Libraries. I bet most see less than 20 people a day.

The one on Bluebonnet is always slammed with cars in the parking lot, just about regardless of time of day too.

For those of you who want to know how often the libraries are used. There's a patron count by branch among the links:
