LCLC provides much more than access to books. Recent additions and renovations to LCLC have also allowed for an expansion of services and programs, making the library even more community-friendly. Because of improved accessibility, LCLC now has programs for all ages plus meeting rooms for regular and special events.

With the upcoming vote to make LCLC a school district library, it is reasonable to wonder about the future costs, but consider the benefits as well as expenses in making your decision. A YES vote would mean a very small increase in yearly taxes – about the cost of one new book per family. And for that small cost, taxpayers gain a librarian, more operating hours, and influence in operations via an elected Board of Trustees. In the few years since LCLC has opened, many residents have found a stronger sense of community through the life of the library. Great benefits, low cost: wouldn’t you agree?

LCLC is a marvelous, debt-free resource for the whole community, your YES vote on May 15 will help secure the future of LCLC.
