June 26th Library News Round-Up

June 27th, 2005 by Steven M. Cohen

I had a few moments to look into local library news. Here’s a snippet of what I found:

+ Popular by any measure - (from Mercury News) - “More than 1 million patrons have checked out approximately 2.5 million books, compact discs, periodicals and other materials from the Santa Clara Central Park Library since it opened 14 months ago.”

+ Libraries sometimes need to reel in overdue fishing rods - (from Belleville News Democrat) - “Anyone can sometimes have an overdue library book, but an overdue fishing rod is possible only in Granite City and four other metro-east communities The Six Mile Regional Library in Granite City signed up nine months ago to get free fishing rods and reels from the Illinois Department of National Resources.”
