Support for Dayton Library, its collection, and Director

To the Editor:

The recent negative controversy about book selection at our local library is really frustrating. It is so easy these days to be critical of the trustees, director and staff when it comes to book selection. In order to serve the entire community a wide selection of books needs to be offered. Having this wide selection, the public is then able to check or not check them out.

It is really the parent’s responsibility to guide and supervise their children in the book selection process.

Director Vanderbark and his staff are doing a wonderful job.   Let’s be positive and recognize the good things that are happening at our library.
