Most of us across the country have had to change our lifestyles during this economic mess. Lots of people contribute to wholesome institutions like libraries. Has the word been sent out to philanthropists and the public at large with a plea for help, or are we just whining - again - that government has to make cuts in spending like the rest of us? When did Americans get so codependent that we feel like we can't get our needs met without the government to take care of us? Whatever happened to our sense of community, committing to causes, fundraising and the like? People! This is the land of opportunity. Remember? The question is: who will take this on and keep the libraries open?
