Lost youth hits Nippersink library
RICHMOND – Fewer children in Spring Grove and Richmond likely are behind decreasing circulation numbers at Nippersink Public Library, its director said.
Unlike some area libraries, Nippersink’s circulation dropped 6 percent in 2012 with part of that coming from a decrease in interlibrary borrowing, according to the library’s annual report.
“The issue is that there are fewer children in the community,” Library Director Cynthia Cole said. “We’re really seeing demographic changes.”
