Jason Harren, Sartell
Do we really need a library in Sartell? The new St. Cloud library is five miles away. The Waite Park branch is three miles away. If you need a hard copy of a book and don’t have a car or a friend to take you to the library, then the bus is available. The Internet is prevalent in most homes and books can be found for rent there. Offer free Wi-Fi and computer stations at the community center for those who need access. Let’s not be ridiculous and build a building to house paper that is traded from one person to another. Lets look to where the schools are going for education materials and it should be clear. They are going to the Internet and issuing iPads or laptops for all students. Let’s spend our money smart, be green and get out of the past.
