library patron

Under a law that had not been updated in more than 40 years, not every library patron could have a say if their library remains open, even if their taxes fund the library.

“A public library cannot function if its librarians can be sued every time a library patron disagrees with their decision to weed a book. Librarians must continually weed books that aren’t being checked out to make room on the shelves for new arrivals. That is not censorship or book banning,” Mitchell, a well-known conservative lawyer who helped conceive Texas’s abortion ban, said in a statement.

“We’re very upset that our community doesn’t want to support the library. We’re Americans. We recognize freedom of speech,” library patron and retired school teacher Jay Milkamp told WOOD-TV.

That took some heart to even think to do that for a library patron.

In these dreams, Stefan was the library patron, but I was the one searching for myself.
