The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh is planning a huge fund-raising effort to update its facilities and its image, amid growing competition from the Internet and large bookstore chains. Carnegie has set a goal of raising $25 million over the next several years to overhaul its main library in the Oakland neighborhood and 13 branches.
\”It\’s not just fund-raising,\” Library Director Herb Elish said. \”It\’s a matter of, \’What should libraries look like? What do people expect for the 21st century? What should we provide and how do we provide it?\’\”
