You are right, why should people read and better themselves when they can get everything they need by watching Fox News?
What threecatcorner said. It's been a very nice arrangement over the years.JSAD said:Which city... The City of Bryan are the ones that employs the librarians in this library, but uses the City of College Station's infrastructure...techno-ag said:
There are lots of things a city can waste money on, but a library is not one of them, IMHO.

There is an agreement between the two cities. The city of College Station pays the City of Bryan to run it because it was a better deal to combine into one system than to set up two completely separate libraries. They split the cost of things like the system that's used for looking up and checking out books, and companies give a better rate that way than if each city had to pay for a complete independent system. There's also access to way more items with both cities in the same system.
