Ridgewood NJ, Resident Steve Kim summed up the prime issue from most of us when it comes to the Ridgewood Library, what about the books?
Kim says, “The library should promote literacy foremost.
In this quest, books matter and matter a whole lot. Stacks, where people can browse, explore and discover books to read, are truly valuable.
Amazon and Google have recommendation engines that are programmed to make people think the way they want you to think. BCCLS search also wires people singularly.
The library can counteract that with the physical presence of books.
$8 million reimagine gut reno plan and not a single book is to be added. That is not right. Misplaced priorities. “
