  • Paris library holding fundraisers

    SOUTH PARIS — The Paris Public Library has begun a campaign to raise $15,000 and install a central air conditioning system in the building. Many people found last summer's heat unbearable in the library, where temperatures regularly peaked in the 90s. The library's trustees solicited ideas and bids on solving the problem. The common recommendation was a "ductless split" system sufficient in size to effectively and efficiently cool the 5,000 square foot structure. To raise the money necessary, the library is holding several fundraisers, tailored to meet individuals' budgets.
