  1. I just wanted to you let you all know that I love how you do this - take a hot topic in the news and show what is available on the topic in the library. I have just been so impressed with your and the Arts division's blogs, and it just makes me so happy to see DCPL making these user-centered changes (I've been using DCPL so long, that I still have one of those old red library cards and I've definitely noticed things changing for the better in the last year or so). Keep up the good work!
