Potential sites include a tiny garden plot and land near Cary—though the latter raises equity worries, as it could serve wealthier, whiter residents while distancing the library from its current low-income, diverse community. Locals fear the move won’t just be a relocation but a replacement, stripping away the library’s role as a vital hub for students, immigrants, and families who rely on it daily. The county’s board will soon weigh options, balancing practicality with the library’s deep community roots. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
