Library Service Returns to Colton California

Link to December 1 San Bernadino County Sun article, "Colton libraries reopen with six-day schedule".

Excerpt: Pete Carrasco, chairman of the Colton Public Library Board of Trustees, said he's glad the city responded to the public's request to restore the libraries.

"I think the community spoke out and they're responding to the community," he said. "I think it's a step in the right direction."

The libraries and homework assistance center that was housed at the Carnegie building were closed in November as cost-cutting measures to offset a projected $5 million deficit for the fiscal year.
