Several speakers at Citizen’s Time yesterday spoke to the issue of a library in Gainesville. In fact, one woman shrieked at the board for a solid three minutes. Sadly, she did not make her point. Shrieking anger seems more blog-like than tone one should use addressing the BOCS. I was extremely grateful when her three minutes were up. Other speakers spoke for the libraries at citizens time, with considerable less vitriol.
What some of the people in Gainesville must not realize is that they have a library. We call it Bull Run Regional Library up here in the original Gainesville District. It’s right over in the Sudley North Center, off of Sudley Manor Drive on Ashton Avenue. It’s very much in the Gainesville area. It’s a modern, attractive, large, well-stocked facility with several community meeting rooms.
