One thought on “Carmel, Westfield expand, build new libraries as demands for services change

  1. As much as I am a bibliophile, I think building new libraries is a waste of taxpayer money if the old one is still standing and in good condition. I read a lot, and i get my books at the library, but I haven’t’ stepped in a library to get a book in over 6 years. I get all my books digitally and I know most people who are library patrons do as well. Instead of new bricks and mortar, spend that money on new equipment that will help members of the community such as more computers, more services and more digital books.
