Library Looks At Options


Thunder Bay's Public Library budget is coming in at almost 5.4 million dollars.  It's a 143-thousand dollar increase in their finances from the City.  CEO John Pateman says one of the things on their mind is the current lease for the County Fair Mall that expires this fall.  The two options for the library are to either lease a new location within the mall or build a new facility outside of the mall.  Pateman says they'll take some time to explore both options and notes they are in talks with the new owners of the County Fair Mall.
