Library Value Calculator

In these tough economic times, the library is being used more than ever! Patrons are using the library to find jobs via the use of our public computers, families are bringing their children to the free programs, instead of spending money at the movies, patrons are borrowing DVDs , and the amount of books being borrowed is at an all time high — these are some of the reasons why people visit the our library.

Curious to know how much these free services would actually cost if you had to pay for them?
