Re: the library v. the internet
I was a librarian in the Ossy, Church, Gt. Harwood and Rishton libraries back in the '60's when they were well-stocked. Now, Accrington library has a pathetic excuse for a Childrens' section, and I've heard that Ossy childrens' library is moving into the smaller reference/reading room - to make more space for computers. I'm sure that children have access to computers at home and school. Andrew Carnegie who established Ossy library and many others must be spinning in his grave!
