INSPIRE Is Indiana's Gem
Libraries have been an integral part of my life, beginning as a student library helper in junior high school. With the addition of technology and all it has to offer, the scope of what libraries can offer their patrons has drastically increased. Having INSPIRE definitely has its advantages. I rely on the ease in locating Indiana information for my patrons: state tax forms, entertainment guides, or schoolwork sites. I try to publicize INSPIRE to anyone I have helped try to locate information online as well as include it in my computer classes. My library is one of many within our county and is located in a rural area. Having INSPIRE available with all the various databases allows my software budget go farther. INSPIRE is a gem the state of Indiana needs to cherish. I vote to keep INSPIRE funded for the betterment of our citizens' informational needs.

Count on the Library
As a Senior library user, I welcome the use of Large Print and Christian fiction my library has to offer. I enjoy seeing the librarian hosting reading programs; storytimes; and offering prizes for reading accomplishments. I'm still shaky using the computers, but the librarians are very patient with me and have taught me how to use e-mail and the joy of sending greeting cards online. I count on my local library.
