North Country library voices: Noreen Patterson

Our very own Noreen Patterson, the director at Phoenix Public Library in Oswego County, wrote an editorial that appeared in the Watertown Daily Times yesterday.

Noreen Patterson of Phoenix Public Library.

Here's my favorite bit: "When local communities invest in their libraries, they make their communities stronger with programs for children and adults, with computers for job searches and homework assignments. But mostly, they make the statement that they value lifelong learning and the opportunity to access so much information from alternative sources."

True story.

Thanks, Noreen, for being a library advocate!
