Embrace the Library

January 29, 1986, Twin City News-Record
This is a nice featurette on what the two libraries in the Twin Cities could do for the 1986 patron.  Of course, this was pre-internet and before the two engaged in much-anticipated expansion programs.  Heck, at this point, the Neenah Library only had two computers, as shown here.  Still, I know the founders of the respective libraries from less than a hundred years before this article, could not have envisioned such a progression of knowledge resources available to the average citizen.  And thirty years hence, it's as if another information revolution has exponentially occurred.  Such times we live in, indeed.
