In his recent column on Friday, August 10, 2007, Wichita Eagle editorial writer and columnist Randy Scholfield asks the question:
Why are libraries homeless shelters?.
Libraries do not provide nighttime sleeping quarters and other needed services for people living homeless, yet many libraries are a shelter for reading, study and learning, they offer a variety of educational type of resources as well as a place for any and all members of the general public to simply be, regardless of who they are or what their financial or housing status might be, this includes those of us who might not have homes.
