I think it's because of the large elderly population in Florida. They
are definitely not renovating. This is an ongoing service, and how
delightful, when it's 96 degrees out and humid, to have your library
books delivered to your door.

Wow! I wonder why that is. Maybe they have little space--or are
remodeling. When our branch was being remodeled they had a lot of books
in a trailer or bookmobile. I guess they were taken from storage and
brought to the bookmobile. Maybe that's what's happening in Orlando.
When you get there, please let us know the explanation.
