Tacoma removes reference librarians from branches
Tacoma overhauls its library system
– reported by King5.com
If you’re looking for help at a library in Tacoma, get ready to dial because the library system is pulling reference librarians from most branches and reassigning them to the main office.
It’s about juggling resources to keep the doors open longer at more libraries.
Only three of 10 branches will have reference personnel. Everywhere else, people who need help will have to pick up the phone and call for it.
