I’ve heard of the Niles Library, and I think it has always had a good reputation. I hope the new board members are defeated in their efforts to destroy the budget. I don’t know much about Chicago politics but in Cleveland, at least at the county level, we’ve always had fairly strong support of our libraries.
We need #MorePublic - not less. If you want to learn how to run for local office and oust these conservative budget cutters - contact the CivicLab (see our civic workshops at http://www.powerinstitute.us) at info@civiclab.us.
Also scarred for life by the binocular scene. Thanks (really) for reminding me of the source of this experience. As a bird watcher and HEAVY binocular user, the image comes back to me often. :)

Here, too. This is relatively aberrant. It's about conservatism attempts to gut government from within.

It took me years to even want to talk about it.
Library was run well when I covered it for the Niles Spectator back in Pioneer Press days. You might remember the Niles Bugle!
Very much so. Read it avidly as a boy.
