What a fricking shite show. Nothing but homeless types boosting wifi. 4 floors and every one had loud activity on it. Every conversation was on speaker phone. Netflix playing in various corners. Everyone who works here looks to have diabetes. Jesus.

Downtown where? We are scattered around the globe. Can't assume we know where you're talking about.

At least the roof didn’t collapse (yet).

Move to Missoula (you can raise rabbits) and things will be different there, Vasili.

Is that library still open? I have so many fond memories of that place. Its smell is etched into my brain.

The goodwood location isn’t bad at all, granted I haven’t been in a while

Goodwood has been completely rebuilt. I think it is considered the main branch of the parish.

Huge waste of taxpayer dollars especially with the mess up in construction. We did not need a downtown library.

We already had one, but instead of giving it a facelift; the Library people elected to build a monument to themselves.

Our Library System is loaded.
