Libraries in the news

I've been running across loads of articles in the news about libraries in email, my feed reader, and different podcasts I listen to. Thought I'd share a little collection of them here, just in case you might be interested.

Local news:

• Audio books allow 'readers' to get up and go
• Public libraries are keeping up
• Internet offerings keep libraries booked up
• Library gives connection to community
• Wife, husband pursue mission work during EAA

National news:

• Economic slump a gain for south Florida libraries
• Libraries shine in tough economic times (NPR broadcast)

How are things at your library? Busier than ever in a sagging economy? Post your thoughts in the comments.
