Friends of the library
When Patt Morrison (Opinion, Nov. 9) says that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger “should be embarrassed to be the governor of a state where a city library named after John Steinbeck has to power down its computers and refer its patrons to the Kinko’s downtown,” she says it all.
She says it all about the fact that, although I’m sure Kinko’s does a fine job, there are simply some people who can’t afford to pay for those services, and it is in the best interest of us all to pay to provide them as part of our infrastructure. Morrison says it all with such an uncluttered precision and clarity that my guess is she has spent a good deal of time in libraries.
