Jacksonville Public Library recently established a remote location using a locker system in order to provide service to an area of Jacksonville in which we do not have a branch. The lockers are in a City Community Center.

Kind of interesting.
I could imagine a number of ways libraries, esp. academic libraries, could use such a locker. Or university bookstores. Anyone hear of this concept before, or of it being used outside of a convenience store?

So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media.
The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.
