This is strange. I just remember reading that there was a proposal for the Twain branch to expand. Now, I’m seeing a report (but only one) that the Hartford Public Library is closing two branches because of budget problems. There’s nothing on the library’s website, nothing about this anywhere else. That’s odd. We’ll file this one under rumor for now.

updated: The Courant has a lengthier piece up about this now. Ugh.

The way to improve things around here is not by giving kids fewer safe places to go during the day. Just saying.
