  • Summary

  • Sherrie Baca executive director of Pueblo County Libraries joins Dave on the Podcast.
    They discuss the seven libraries Master Vision Plan to renovate and refresh public libraries across Pueblo Counties. That plan includes the Barkman library that's current closed, where $4.5 million in investments and 2,700 square feet will be added.

    Since 2003 they have checked out more than 14 million library materials. Baca also reminds Puebloans that most things have gone digital, people can stream music, movies, and read e-books and audio books free with a library card.

    The library has also received a grant through the state to allow Colorado City and Rye residents can access telehealth services through the library system. Meeting rooms are available at no cost with the exception of the Ryals Grand Event Space at the Rawlins library. More than 1,000 laptops, tablets and hotspots are checked out currently.

    They are currently asking for the public to help fund the library renovations for Barkman & Lucero libraries.
