uproar and such a response about and that they had to take a look at it and they ended up pulling the article which is wonderful and some controversy and this article is entitled for he was talking about so what they took what they this this man his name is and i i've tried like over and over in my head to try to say this now look at that more dakota's more dakota anyway this man argued that local libraries are no longer useful he said that libraries if libraries closed taxpayers would save money and this is makes me so mad amazon could open bookstores to provide those communities with physical books flips me out now a spokesman for forbes before i go on to more of what he said he said in a statement before when they were taking this off their you know out of print libraries play an important role in our society this article was out i love this i think they just said it perfectly this article was outside of this contributor's specific area of expertise and has since been removed but they do have editors and everything else i know just like posted on some you know i know nobody nobody nobody stopped it that's right so here here's the go on to all of this what is truly misinformed information but feel like we want to share it because what  to do now is share all of this for this show in the next one that will tape i'm going to share further information from our standpoint from the township public library standpoint some kind of building ok netflix and amazon prime and books you keep saying amazon technology has turned physical this makes i think i have to stop like after every sentence because i keep thinking this makes me mad this makes me mad this makes me mad it all makes me mad but says it has a yeah his opinion technology has turned physical books into collector's items really we should start selling them off the money here and we've got thousand while we're in effectively eliminating the need for library borrowing services he wrote that despite the fact that print books sales from traditional publishing houses are steady he also made the on i love this unsubstantiated claim this is crazy this is totally on says unsubstantiated that some people have started using their loyalty card at starbucks more than they used their library card i students and people who can afford them at home and this is like even more we you know going on of what we also offer for our community with providing free e s and reading classes we do that services for the elderly college hopefuls entrepreneurs and some of the libraries in the hardest hit areas they offer meals for kids at storytime so going right down public benefit aside they went in they decided to research would cutting public libraries save tax taxpayers a significant amount of money the majority of a public library sponging comes from state and local governments not federal for the average home owner in th state and they did this based on ohio the average rate for their portion for the library comes to sixty five dollars for the year year yeah now he was saying and i'll get to that paying for any of those services for sixty five dollars you know but he was saying where is his thing while tell you what he thinks he pays across the country wondering in this case this is my favorite ok well those lines that made me upset this is my favorite line across the country public libraries were to cut and all of the funding were to be divided up among the american so we're going to research by the tax policy center think tank but this guy said let me clarify something like local libraries are free homeowners must pay a local library tax my bill here's his he thinks his bill is four hundred ninety five dollars it made me so angry i know a lot of our stuff and sharing it and differentiates some kind of derogatory lines that i didn't like i mean look at his last line so i mean that's not even nice to say so it's not even worth reading but so what what i'm going to do like i said on the on our next episode for the beginning library around the world news around the world is we're just going to take it from our vantage point from here in peter's township that affects everybody in our community and on i'm going to show them we're going to talk about exactly how we affect our community right  important part in your pocket in dollars and cents she's on it i am going to see why what i'm going to say i was going to say we even live in a community that's not necessarily suffering as much as other communities do right where a lot of people do have i go ahead and anyways august third which falls on a friday this year is national watermelon day we have this cute book called watermelon day by kathy apple it and all these kids are all hanging out in there eating their watermelon well i love a national day of anything like ice cream day is a blast and you can talk that in the senate and ready so we're going on to the third year of celebrating national watermelon day thank you going to pretend even though i was are prepared for time but you got the real thing oh good i'll keep the real thing you can have that look at that did you make it i don't want to know it does look to be about the quality  if you had not i know if you had to pick a song for karaoke you would take disney yeah sure i mean this in this kind of situation i've also love is about a phillips on there when i go to karaoke song we might not really be the karaoke queens that we think we are however how adult to the township are yet so we are going to having a blast just called karaoke kids it's not like this major competition where you going to be the best or you're going to be the worst or whatever and i've already had calls on it and they've even asked if they could pick their own songs or bring on some like shore to bring around the two i said bring your repertoire they said well how many are signed just call in sign up and it's going to be a lot is going to be three different games that are about kerry that are scary as he seemed you know where they're going have to like name that song after you play a few bars o her no husband made her come up and he all but he's a karaoke king like i said who remind yeah well it's always in there but she is not one to get up on a stage but he forced her to because like he said i like my girlfriend k despised humans especially prince card on the youngest and wickedest son of the high king to win a place at the court she must to find him and face the consequences as jude becomes more deeply embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions she discovers her own capacity for treachery and bloodshed but as betrayal threatens to drown the court a fairy in violence jude will risk will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters and fairy itself so another one of those food or snacks and teens feed them and they will come ok it helps i'm going to type this pause for reading into a cute story i wanted to tell you about last night that was something that happened last night that's real cute you know that like programs like pause for reading become the kids favorite every month we do pause for reading in august it is august eleventh that's always the second saturday of the month it starts at ten am you call or stop in and sign up for a twenty minute time slot you know to read to the dogs everybody's favorite including the staff oh you know i was in it once when the dogs come in they're they're well trained they are  licensed therapy dogs that are you know trained in that and earn hours and everything but when i was thinking about you know some people say you know this is my favorite thing my child wants to be here every month for this you know there are specific things that kids don't want to miss last night i had an example of a little boy that came in and i recognized the mom and then she looked at me she made her their communions but the story actually ends up being her little brother james just turned three and his birthday was yesterday saw they asked james what he wanted to do for his birthday and he said come to the library was so they brought i was i was like so i went back there ellie was back in that you know life's little rounder booth things and they he this little boy he was just so focused but i was like oh my gosh happy

cat on thursday august ninth at six thirty woman we make some fun pagan crafts and all kinds of really cute stickers and tattoos and fun things to give away so a new friend it says on the back as closer than you think and mobo yeah we have already talked about my cousin momo because that was the pennsylvania one the one book award so that was really big this year but i had to bring up my favor any two of them i love this snoring bernard yeah it's hysterical all the animals in the zoo they can't sleep because bernard  the colors that he uses and the strokes and home in them and i like it so we're very excited because we have a new one out by zach or i have fun right well going back with the spooky we're going to be reading this i think books the hazelwood keeps popping up so it is going on with this tell you what so i decided to bring it up again but i really love the cover of it but i do too it does it in so i think we're actually going to read it in our for our show or book club for going on with you into seventeen year old alice and her mother have spent most of alice's life on the road always a step ahead of the uncanny bad luck biting at their heels when else is a grandmother the reclusive author of a book of pitch dark fairy tales dies alone in her state the hazelwood alice learns how about her luck can really get her mother is stolen away by figure who claims to come from the cruel supernatural world where her grandmother stories are set only lead is the message from her mother left behind stay away from the hazelwood alice's long steer clear from grandmother's cultish fans but now she has no choice but to ally with her classmate in fairytale superfan ellery finch who may have his own reasons for one to help her to find her mother alice less than sure first the hazelwood and into the world where her grandmother's tales begin and where she might discover why her own story went so wrong so it seems like it's almost like a twist on fairy tales which i  like but it definitely and again i like that it just keeps popping up and so apparently kids and teens are really just enjoying this book a lot so the hazel led by melissa albert ok we have this is actually still in the fiction it's not a graphic novel but it's about the creeper family planning a month long summer vacation but where will they go it sounds so crazy like you know carol creeper jr's self proclaimed pacifist he finds himself in a war zone starts his first year at modern middle school at his new school every monster in the overworld is jockeying for power in the skeleton seemed to have it out for him so it goes on and clips you know of get off the game and really like about it we're not going to have any more time but can i just show you one more really sweet like this one it's called grin and bear it wit and wisdom of corduroy i love it it's kind of like the winnie the pooh's like the tao of and everything i just saved my favorite this is all based on pictures and stuff kinsey corduroy books so it always it has a picture of him doing because i think it's just a little bit more up there for thought provoking than just a story book but cute
