The Lake County Library was still a public library the last time I checked. Public libraries are much more geared to their patrons — their customers.
I think there is an old thread archived somewhere here on TOTV from the time when this change was under discussion. I think the change to privatization went through fa$t. A search should find the old thread. It can be an interesting, historical read, complete with an interloper going on and on about how wonderful the corporation taking over would be. Her sales pitch was painfully obvious, rather like a canned speech.
