Oak Brook Man Hates Libraries, Children, Puppies

This article is simultaneously funny and heartbreaking. The gist is this: the library lost funding, a little girl spoke about how the library would not be the same without the people that had to be fired (including the children’s librarian), and the puppy hating man in the title, Xinos, rebutted the girl and made her cry.

I’m sorry, anyone who made one of my youngest patrons cry would be in for it. I’d speechify the heck out that person.

I’m Julie
