Name: Nicole Godin on Dec 13, 2007Comments: As an Ottawa city resident, OPL user and professional librarian - I am absolutely appalled at the prospect of 10 library branches closing and the current state of the central branch. Ottawa is a city entrenched in knowledge services, information management and related disciplines. As such, it is an absolute travesty that City Council would seek to marginalize sectors of the population that use the library, diminish the transfer of knowledge within its community, and seek to destroy the very democratic foundation for which it derives its authority. A very sad state of affairs in deed.Flag

Name: John Kowalski on Dec 18, 2007Comments: The Ottawa Public Library is an invaluable public resource which promotes an activity which is essential to a democratic country; reading. Access to books is an absolute must in a society which values independent thought and different points-of-view. As television continues its decline into an abyss of mind-numbing reality shows and infomercials whose sole purpose is to sell products and services, it is all the more imperative that the citizens of Ottawa have an accessible public library system which promotes reading and independent thinking.Flag

My family uses the library regularly because it is convenient, has a good selection of books, magazines, CDs, etc and offers an opportunity to meet other BH residents. Please do not reduce services or close the BH branch.Flag

Name: Beverley Allaire on Jul 29, 2008Comments: To me libraries are a place of many resources. With the growing need to decrease our demand of books and information on paper we can at least minimize some tree resources by having books readily available through the library.Flag
