The damage from the big freeze hit #D12 Renner Frankford library hard. No pick-up or drop-off of books will be available while repairs are made. Sadly, the whole collection, 38,112 books will have to be trashed as they are wet, moldy, and curling. Demo starts Saturday. 1/ pic.twitter.com/QW2e44bXpj caraathome (@) (@caraathome) March 5, 2021 ....
