Resident thanks council for keeping library local, offers resources
Summary
Public commenter Diana thanked the council for keeping local library services out of an external system and said volunteers and regional systems like WorldCat and Fort Vancouver remain available as resources for restarting services.
During public comment, Diana thanked the council for decisions she said will keep the local library independent from an outside arrangement she referenced. "I just want to say thank you folks, for keeping our library out of the time of the pindlerland," she said, and added that "WorldCat is online already," citing options for library materials and consortium arrangements.
Diana listed alternate resources and local volunteer interest as part of her appeal; she suggested the community can manage library services "with or without Timberland" and said local groups remain committed to restarting library operations. The council acknowledged the comment but did not take immediate action during the meeting.
