A New President

It was so exciting to watch Barak Obama become our new president on a giant screen television in our auditorium. People cheered and stood up, almost like we were in Washington, D.C. He spoke about hope and change in our country for the better even though times are bad right now for the economy. Many people are losing their jobs, their houses, and short of money. I wonder what companies and institutions will survive in the tough times? A few days ago I read an article in the newspaper and also saw a short clip on television pointing out how going to the library is beneficial at times like this. Why? ALMOST EVERYTHING IS FREE AT THE LIBRARY: BOOKS, MAGAZINES, VIDEOS, DVDS, LECTURES, STORY HOUR!!!!!! What a great deal. I believe there is hope as long as we have libraries.
