📢 Behind the scenes, things have been happening!

Watch for the Joint Appointment Committee Date. To be announced this week!

The four liaisons will be meeting to choose another nominee for PPLD's Board of Trustees after City Council voted 'no' on Kenny Kuniyuki. Our choice is Harry Karasopoulos, for many reasons. As Elizabeth Carter put it, "Harry Karasopoulos offers the ideal combination of financial acumen, business management experience, and—most critically—community trust."

Please come to this meeting when we know the date, wearing COS Reads T-shirts if possible! Showing up in large numbers at critical meetings like this sends the message that we are a solid, committed group that isn't giving up. I'll notify everyone as soon as we hear of the date.

📝 Future northwest PPLD library?

At Wednesday’s PPLD Board of Trustees meeting, Julie Smythe and Teona Shainidze-Krebs shared early conversations they've had with a property owner and city councilor about a possible northwest library location. While this is just the beginning of dialogue, it’s encouraging to see movement.

Let's keep up the momentum! Here’s how we’re working to make a Northwest PPLD library a reality:

- Attending and speaking at public meetings (we always need more voices!)

- Communicating individually with city councilmembers and county commissioners

- Running our own small, independent library to fill the void left by PPLD's closure of Rockrimmon Library

- Exploring every possible way to keep the discussion going

Volunteers needed! If you’d like to help in any of these areas, we’d love to hear from you. Please email us!
