I am writing this letter to support the re-elections of both Judy Meyer and Regina McCrea to the Community Library Board. Both of them have presided over the growth of this network that now covers most of Kootenai County, and they have accomplished it within the traditional budget. Most importantly, they have steadily listened to citizens’ concerns while still keeping these libraries open as places that provide the resources for free thought and open inquiry. They will continue to do so. This is the most important issue in this election; and only Judy Meyer and Regina McCrea will continue to maintain this character that by rights belongs to all libraries.
