I am curious, who out there had trouble finding books to read before the change? Were you unable to find new authors? Unable to feel free to go to other genre sections for a change?

If we are as a community to fund a public Library, whatever its size, it must be one that everyone can access, not one that excludes groups of people who have paid through their rates for a Library but are now denied equal access, because their their search patterns are misunderstood and not being accounted for!
If we are to provide library services that all ratepayers contribute to, then it needs to be accessible by anyone who can read, traditional genre sections provide that opportunity!
