On March 22nd, the Board of Carrboro Aldermen will hold a public hearing on Orange County's request to rezone 210 Hillsborough Road, Carrboro, NC, 27510 from residential use to business use for the sole purpose of building the Southwest Orange Regional Branch Library. This proposed library will merge the current Orange County Library collection at Carrboro Branch Library at McDougle Schools with that of the Carrboro Cybrary at the Century Center, and will serve the 35,000 residents of Southwest Orange County. We, the Friends of the Carrboro Branch Library, have been advocating the building of such facility for over 24 years and urge all southwest Orange County residents to support this rezoning request. A fully functioning library, with its attendant computers, will serve the educational needs of all our citizens, from toddlers to seniors. Please sign our online petition or sign one of the many hard copies around. For more information, or if you would like to take responsibility for a hard copy petition page, please contact Nerys Levy at rilevy@mindspring.com. Also, please write to the Board of Aldermen supporting the County's rezoning request and come to the public hearing on March 22nd. It's your Library. Please support it! Thank you.
