Jackson Co. Library saved?

madcow writes “The Medford (Jackson Co. OR) paper
reports that the County’s library system may be saved after all thanks to some federal maneuvers by the senate. It’s not clear that the bill will survive the threatened Bush veto.
“The Senate voted 75-22 for emergency funding for more than 700 counties in 39 states that benefitted from the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self Determination Act, passed in 2000 but not renewed last year. Jackson County would receive $23 million of the $425 million in the first year, about the same amount it received under the act.””
