Too Many Libraries Too Many Libraries in Vermont
The Vermont Free Library Service may add 15 resource center libraries including Mark Skinner Library in Montpelier and Bennington Free Library. Centers would get a 2500 grant for non fiction, atop regular budgets, as 300 libraries serve 400000 people, urging cooperation or mergers among small towns. No action yet. Elena Horton opposes forced removals or mergers.
