The Library Board posed two questions at the All Candidates meeting for the November 13 municipal election. Here are the questions and the answers from the candidates.
Question #1: The Fleming Library is exceedingly overcrowded. Would you support the building of a larger library facility in Beamsville?
Robert Condotta: We'd have to look at all the other needs and the costs involved and it's hard to say right now if the library would be on the list, but of course libraries are important.
Question # 2: Our public library serves as one of the finest public access information services in the world. How would you rank the library in importance among municipally funded services?
Jacqueline McPherson: It's an unfair question because I've always been a library supporter. Libraries are such an important resource no matter who you are or where you live. There's always one there. But I do agree that the Fleming Library is bursting at the seams and we do need a new library in Beamsville.
Tell us what you think about the issues affecting the library!
