Why Cut Wake's Library Budget Now?
If you or your child are big fans of your Wake County library, be aware that a proposal now calls for those libraries to cut $1.84 million.
Wake County leaders have recommended closing branches at Duraleigh, Southgate,
Wendell and Athens Drive High, and shutting down the Electronic Information Center in downtown Raleigh and a book mobile, library officials told WRAL. Under the proposal, branch hours at libraries would be cut and some staff could be laid off.

http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/4426289/ I have heard from several people who use our Wendell library regularly and it's closing would create a hardship for many in our community.
I would propose they reduce hours at all Wake County libraries instead of closing some them.
I also suggest to all who oppose this closing to contact the Wake County Commissioners and let them know how you feel.
