Remember when I said that hopefully things will settle down? Well, I missed the mark on that one by quite a bit. Between the debate, the memes, the vitriol against the Haitians (much of it, sadly, by fellow Springfield residents) and today's five bomb threats
throughout the city (none at the library, thankfully), I can safely say that I am out of the prediction business (always predicting the Browns are going to win the Super Bowl should have clued me in to that). Anyway, we, as a library, are weathering things
as best as we can, and I thank everyone that has offered us their support.</div>
