LIBRARY TRUSTEE ELECTION: Vote for Meyer and McCrea

Thank you CLN Library Trustees Judy Meyer and Regina McCrea for your dedication to our communities, fiscal responsibility overseeing the library budget, hiring professional library personnel, setting long-range planning goals for the future of our libraries (with community input) and being advocates for our First Amendment right to intellectual freedom. You have been fulfilling the responsibilities of Trustees with dignity and grace.

We need to choose the most competent among us to serve as Trustees for our cherished institutions (NIC, public libraries, etc.). We TRUST these individuals to be guided by serving community needs and interests not motivated by narrow personal or political agendas. Despite the pressure of a fractional group in our communities, the May 16 election of Library Trustees should be nonpartisan.

Citizenship comes with responsibilities. I urge everyone to get out and vote for Meyer and McCrea. The future of free speech and access to information is on the ballot.

LESLIE WILDE
