Camden Closing Library SystemUpdated: Friday, 06 Aug 2010, 12:11 PM EDT Published : Friday, 06 Aug 2010, 8:55 AM EDT MYFOXNY.COM STAFF REPORT CAMDEN, N.J. - New Jersey's most impoverished city will close all three branches of its public library at year's end unless a rescue can be pulled off. Camden's library board says the libraries won't be able to afford to stay open past Dec. 31 because of budget cuts from the city government. The city had its subsidy from the state cut. The library board president says the library system, which opened in 1904, is preparing to donate, sell or destroy its collections, including 187,000 books. Board president Martin McKernan says keeping the books around would pose a fire hazard. Camden's library system is not the only one having financial problems. Fourteen libraries in Queens cut weekend services earlier this year. More here: http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/local_news/new_jersey/camden-closing-library-system-20100806-apx |

Municipal Libraries are the first target of dirty politicians when they get past trying to scare the voters into higher taxes by cutting police and fire.
Its serious and an admission of their incompetence and book-burning Nazi tendencies. FUCK CAMDEN'S DEMOCRAT PARTY HACKS AND THE GOVERNMENT THEY CORRUPTED. |
