Link to October 3 Houston Chronicle article, "Going beyond books. Houston libraries are revamping their services to appeal to a changing world".

Excerpt: Still a haven for bookworms, Houston's public library has embarked on a bold expansion of services to capture the imagination — and serve the needs - of a media-savvy, 21st century clientele. Robotics, astronomy, yoga and parent-toddler computer training all have joined the roster of classes as HPL moves to expand its traditional offerings of story hours, GED coaching and citizenship workshops.
