    I am afraid I am too old and infirm to join the public protest but I certainly support what you are doing. It is very sad that the beautiful Central Library has been closed for so long. When I was young I belonged to the Lending library and the Music library and spent many hours in the Reference library. I hope your protest yields positive results and that the library will be open again very soon.
    Regards, Jean Collen.
