Library may open to debate over cuts says San Jose’s joint city-university library opening at same time as cuts are proposed for branches.
San Jose’s new Martin Luther King Jr. Library will open in downtown this summer with all the pomp and circumstance befitting the eight-story, state-of-the-art structure.
About the same time, most of the city’s aging and cramped neighborhood branch libraries will meet a different fate: 13 of 17 of them are scheduled to close an extra day a week, victims of a proposal to chip away at the city’s largest budget deficit in decades.
