“To be a librarian, you have to be very special. I believe our librarians are made for that job. I would hate to see them be ousted.”

“I’m definitely for having libraries in the school and having libraries there to teach them what the resources are, how to use them. It’s kind of a lost art, and I’d hate to see it go away.”

Cathy Reppar

Fall City

“I’m a huge book fan, I just want librarians there. I think there are other places the district can make cuts.”

Angela Zwiefelhofer

“They referred all my good books, the books that I refer to my son to read. I think that librarians are probably pretty important.”
