Libraries a waste of tax money!
by Subbiah Arunachalam 02 Jul '10

02 Jul '10

>From Fox Are Libraries Necessary, or a Waste of Tax Money? Updated: Wednesday, 30 Jun 2010, 1:46 PM CDT Published : Monday, 28 Jun 2010, 9:53 PM CDT By Anna Davlantes, FOX Chicago News Chicago - They eat up millions of your hard earned tax dollars. It's money that could be used to keep your child's school running. So with the internet and e-books, do we really need millions for libraries? Libraries are quiet havens for the community. They take us to other worlds. They even make us laugh. But should these institutions -- that date back to 1900 B.C. -- be on the way out? There are 799 public libraries in Illinois. And they’re busy. People borrow more than 88 million times a year. But keeping libraries running costs big money. In Chicago, the city pumps $120 million a year into them. In fact, a full 2.5 percent of our yearly property taxes go to fund them. That's money that could go elsewhere – like for schools, the CTA, police or pensions One of the nation's biggest and busiest libraries is the $144-million Harold Washington Library in the Loop. It boasts a staggering 5,000 visitors a day!. So we decided to check it out. We used an undercover camera to see how many people used the library and what were they doing. In an hour, we counted about 300 visitors. Most of them were using the free internet. The bookshelves? Not so much. REVENUE FROM LIBRARIES We know we spend a lot on them. But libraries do bring in some revenue: more than $2 million in fines is collected annually by Chicago public libraries. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
