Department of Clarification

Yesterday, I implied that the upcoming deletion of the Facebook group Save the Warren Memorial Library! was a sign the Friends of the Warren Memorial Library (FWML) were petering out of existence. Now, while my report that the Facebook group will shutter its virtual doors on Friday is still true, I should've clarified the FWML is still very much alive and that they've simply set up shop in a different Internet location (here).

According to an e-mail sent by Kelly Watters, the new Web site was created to include those not affiliated with Facebook, and the FWML has readjusted its focus "to push for a branch library up to the old Jr. High once it opens."

Obviously these people have very little to no clue about how the internet works. They should be using the Facebook to push people to this website. Closing down their facebook page is just a waste of a free resource.

I just received an e-mail saying the Friends of the Warren Memorial Library will not be closing its Facebook group after all.

Well they can list that under the good idea column. God forbid people think logically in this town.
