If the requested additional county support is not granted, the Rappahannock Library will have to return to a part-time operation.

It will no longer receive state books for the visually handicapped and will have to severely curtail book purchases. In addition, the library will lose $2,200 in state and federal funds per year.

“The services of a good, full-functioning library are essential to a first-class rural community,” the Library Trustees said. “Rappahannock has developed such a library through years of volunteer work and support of unselfish and generous residents. It will be a great waste and loss to let the library phase down to a second-class, ‘sometime’ operation now.”
