THE Place in Town to Watch Soccer

Nope, not the sports bar — but the library!

Via Library Garden, read this cool little post!

In the early June Chris Ducko, our building manager, had a request from a patron if they could watch the afternoon match of a World Cup game somewhere in the library. Our high-tech community room was not being used, so Chris turned it on for him. The next day he came back with a few friends and from there the crowd continued to grow through word of mouth around town. We had suddenly become THE place in town to watch soccer! In fact, by the time we reached the match between France and Brazil we had a large crowd of about 70 whohad gathered to watch and cheer on their team.
