Pretty soon, library patrons might have to stick to their hometown libraries or pay a fee to use other libraries’ services, as local libraries struggle to cope with a proposed 40 percent cut in state aid.
A state Legislature conference committee voted Sunday to reduce state aid from $10 million to $6 million, setting the stage for votes in the House and Senate when their members return to work Tuesday.

Fees
No better time than now to start charging fees to the unemployed to use library services!?!? Not!?!? but libraries have do do what they can to remain open and as accessible as they can.
