More evidence for the necessity of cheap, available books for students: a girl in Greeley, Colorado has been denied the right to check out library books because her parents did not pay the required $40 library fee. The fee is used to supplement the school’s budget for software, computer maintenance, and new books. Students who do not pay the fee are not allowed to check out books from the school library.
