National Library Week highlights patrons thanks and reading
Lawrence residents share how the public library shapes their lives during National Library Week. Amy Summers, now blind from glaucoma, still borrows audio books several times weekly with help from librarians. Margaret Elvig uses Value Line and travel resources, while Jennifer Brown visits with her children for storytime and a book club.
