The director, David Keeber, has been impressed with the relationship the Sedonans have to their library. One of the things that really stunned me is how much pride the community takes in the library. You see that attitude further personified by our 150 volunteers. They are a very permeable membrane between the library and the rest of the community. Library patrons are encouraged to visit other libraries and see how they compare with our library.
Public libraries can reflect a lot about their communities.
The article also went on to say Hudson's active citizens have supported and funded the YMCA, the soccer fields, the Phipps Center for the arts, and the new medical facility. This article discussed many of the plans for dealing with the city's nearly 38 percent growth during the past decade, an increase of 2,397 people. Now is a good time to be considering these things as our community continues to grow, and the library's shelf space continues to decline and the available space becomes more congested. The results of the survey sponsored by the Friends of the Library will help to make known the view of our community, but concerned citizens can also make their voices heard by contacting library board members, city government officials, the library director, and by writing letters to the editor of this paper.
