What Can Be Done?
CDA vs. CLN
Separate & Not Equal
The Coeur d'Alene library
and the
Community Library Network (CLN)
are
completely separate entities.
However, patrons from either can use CDA
or any library within CLN.
But their operations, management, boards,
taxation and funding are completely separate.
Another BIG difference:
CLN board members are elected;
CDA board members are appointed by
CDA's mayor and city council.
Library Board Trustees & their staff
work for you!
Attend library board meetings and/or
contact the trustees & staff that
sexually-explicit materials for minors are
NOT OK.
