LANSFORD, Pa. The wheels in Robert Palazzo s mind were turning when he and his staff in the Panther Valley School District in Lansford, came up with the idea for the Book Buggy, a mobile library unit. I think with the COVID closure, the Panther Valley Library was closed for a long period of time, so there wasn t a place for families to get books. They are open again, so we do encourage families to support the local library as well, but I think that this is a real opportune time, said Panther Valley Elementary Principal Robert Palazzo.
