Court blocks library transfer
Source: By ANDREW TRAN, Jackson Sun (TN), April 21, 2006
A court order was signed Thursday preventing the Jackson-Madison County Library Board from taking further action to consider privatizing library management until after a judge declares whether the action is legal. The Library Board met Thursday to listen to community input on three proposals - two from private companies and one from the current management - with most of the public opinion against privatizing. But board members could not discuss the proposals amongst themselves at the executive meeting as originally planned because of a temporary injunction. ..... A court hearing is scheduled for May 5.
