But, hey, Yaz won the batting title -- and the Triple Crown -- with a .326 average in 1967.
Budget cuts target libraries. Materials sharing, Braille service are threatened. (Isthmus, 4/21/2011)
Excerpt: Cuts to Wisconsin library budgets come in three areas. State aid to school libraries would be cut by $4.6 million. Funding to the state's 17 public library systems — such as the South Central Library System, which serves Dane and six other counties — would be cut by $13.5 million (we only wish this was a 10% cut), essentially ending materials sharing.
The effects of cuts could be exacerbated if Walker is successful in eliminating a statute that separately specifies library "maintenance of effort." Without maintenance of effort, a city could slash its library support and instead attempt to rely on services or materials provided by a neighboring community.
