Ive heard that the Minneapolis Public Library had to cut back hours at branches because they spent too much money on their new downtown library. Could something like that happen here?
No. The GRRL system is organized differently than the Minneapolis Public Library. The city owns the new building in St. Cloud and the sales tax is paying the costs of construction so this is not taking any funds from GRRL operations and will in no way negatively impact on the other branches in the system.
