From the Email InBox: Citizens Ejected from PUBLIC LIBRARY

From the Email InBox:

Eight citizens were ejected from the library Monday evening. They met there to go over the public records on AES, the peaker plant. The five or so volumes are about twenty inches in thickness and cannot be removed from the library. They are very large and cannot even be held on ones lap.

The library allows games to be played by a group and aloud reading but citizens looking at public records are told that they have to clear it with the library before they meet there to look at public records. They were told the library has to have a special insurance for them to meet there. One of the citizens made up an agenda to follow in their research so the Head Librarian said that they would have to go through a procedure that requires insurance and that they would have to leave.

This lady is close friends with certain council members and the citizens feel this had a lot to do with them being told they could not use the public library to meet and look at public records. These citizens live in the area of the peaker plant and have a right to research the public records in a public library. What kind of special insurance does the library have to secure for people to look at public records.
