In my opinion, the city made a mistake when it moved to the Barnes & Noble bookstore, and they are about to make another mistake if they don’t reconsider finding a new permanent location for the Godeke Library.

Again in my opinion, this should be in the southwest part of Lubbock. The money spent moving to Barnes & Noble store and for rent should have been used for a permanent location owned by the city.

just a question.....

with the availability of the internet, books that are downloadable and most of us having the ability to do this from our phones, do we need a library in the 20-teens?

I have to say....

I tend to agree with Dr.Bill, why do we need it?............There has to be better things to spend money on where by everyone obtains a benefit.

further....

Would it cost anymore than the building and upkeep of the library system if we just put in free wifi through the whole city? As Bill points out, very very few of us do not have a cell phone that is internet capable, even the "poor" have them, most school kids have them as well!
