Become an informed voter at library. (Marshfield News Herald, 3/17/2011)
Excerpt: Marshfield Public Library is an important information resource. As such, the library is providing an informational display where citizens can learn more about the candidates in the April 5 election for Marshfield -- common council and school board; and town of McMillan -- town chair, constable and supervisors.
Library Director Lori Belongia said, "We applaud the candidates for their commitment of time and energy in pursuit of office. We also encourage the public to take this opportunity to become more informed about the people who will make decisions on their behalf."
Each candidate was asked to provide a photo and information explaining what he or she sees as important community challenges and opportunities, which talents, qualities and expertise that he or she brings to the position, and how he or she views his or her role in the governmental process.
An exemplary idea!
