Cockroaches put library on bug alert

Anonymous Patron writes Ottawa Citizen – canada.com network Floods and pestilence have struck the Ottawa Public Library’s main branch, says the city’s library board chairman.

While the problems may not have reached biblical proportions, officials are on alert for cockroaches at the library’s Metcalfe Street headquarters.

As well, the tail end of Hurricane Frances, which inundated the city earlier this month, flooded the top two floors of the main branch, causing damage to walls and floors.”
