Comment: Please move the new painting (now on the back
corner of the building) to a more visible location. It is too important a message and too
beautiful to be in the back.
Response: We’re so glad to hear that you love our “Ezra
Cornell” mural as much as we do! One of
the driving factors behind this beautiful piece—created by artist Nestor Madalengoitia—was our desire to make the back of our
building more recognizable, since there it doesn’t have any library
signage. We are hopeful that our entire
community will take the time that you did to view and appreciate this special
work of art.
Comment: Thanks for bringing “The New Jim Crow” to the
community, and they’re all off the shelf very fast. The community is really alert and has had a
strong response to the Community Read. I
hope to see more from you!
Response: We are honored to be able to partner with the
Multicultural Resource Center to bring “The New Jim Crow” Community Read to our
patrons. We had nearly two hundred
copies of the book in circulation, and within just a few days, our patrons had
embraced the Read and checked out every single one—what a tremendous testament
to our community!
