The Washington County Public Library thanks all who voted for the library system’s 1-mill, five-year levy on the Nov. 2 ballot. By voting yes, voters affirmed the importance of their libraries’ services to themselves and to their communities.
As a lifelong resident of Washington County, I had faith in the citizens of our county; but I certainly did not take anything for granted during this election since library services were at stake. We recruited some of the county’s outstanding citizens to lead our levy effort: Rick Peoples, Dave Combs, and Emerson Shimp. I would like to send special thanks as well to all our supporters, volunteers, library trustees, Friends of the Library groups, staff, and loyal patrons who together assured our levy’s success. The library levy was vital to help maintain library operations. Everyone benefits.
