* Re “L.A. Does It Right With Redesign of Central Library,” July 12:
Add my voice to that of Robert Jones’ in support of good public design. The Los Angeles Central Library is an excellent example. It is unconscionable to spend public money on facilities that are ugly and will not last. The public deserves good value for its scarce resources and good design doesn’t have to cost a premium. Can anyone enter the Central Library and not feel proud?
As a fourth-generation Angeleno, I even felt this way opening the doors to the pre-reconstruction library, with its murals and reliefs. It’s even better now.
