The Blog | The Blaze
I love when private companies do what the government can't -The Blog | The Blaze:
The New York Times tells the story of a private for-profit company named L.S.S.I. that takes over public libraries mainly from struggling cities, removes the cost from the city, improves them, and then gives some cash back to the communities. Of course, everyone immediately complains about it.
Some L.S.S.I. customers have ended their contracts, while in other places, opposition has faded with time. In Redding, Calif., Jim Ceragioli, a board member of the Friends of Shasta County Library, said he initially counted himself among the skeptics.
But he has since changed his mind. “I can’t think of anything that’s been lost,” Mr. Ceragioli said."
