That is a bummer. I worked as a page part time right out of high school while I was doing volunteer work. It was a great experience. We saw a huge increase in library usage and book checkouts after adding internet connected computers, which flew right in the face of what the mainstream media had predicted. Patrons would see something of interest online, then come and ask us for books on the relevant subject. Sorry to hear about the layoff. That is a bummer.
