Wilton Manors Library Reopens After Infestation
By John Hayden
|
|
|
|
Wilton Manors’ public library is once again open to the community.
The staff reopened the facility at 9 a.m. Aug. 26. All scheduled programs and meetings are back on as well. In other words, business as normal.
The library was closed for nearly two weeks after an infestation of bed bugs was discovered. The building closed on Aug. 14 and was subsequently “tented” for fumigation.
One member of the library told The Gazette that the tent was up for a long time to make sure the building is pest free. They say there is no residual odor.
No fines accrued for late items during the closure, but people with borrowed materials are urged to return them as soon as possible.
The library will be closed Saturday, Aug. 31-Monday, Sept. 2 for Labor Day weekend.

We Retracted Our MPOX Story. Here’s Why
|
We published a story “Summer Surge: MPOX Comes Raging Back” on Aug. 23 online and in that week’s print edition. The World Health Organization recently declared the MPOX outbreak a global health emergency. OutSFL decided to write a story focused on the local infection numbers and how our readers can protect themselves.

InTarotGate by Dooney
The challenge for you as August closes, is to revisit a plan that was met with opposition and a lack of appreciation for all the effort you have put into it and for the results you know it can bring. The Two of Wands, as an indicator of your planning effort, could very well mean that you have chosen the wrong audience, slow to embrace progress as the reversed Chariot and unable to see the merits of your vision as indicated by the reversed Six of Wands. These two forces are pushing you back to the drawing board for sure, but perhaps they are also forcing you to consider a wider world of options that can certainly expand the possibilities of what you have envisioned and in that broader view you might find that it is time to turn from this group of naysayers altogether. This plan could well be related new work projects, moving or traveling, or a romantic proposal facing pushback from those closest you, but the message is the same: consider your audience and think bigger, bigger than the limitations of your current state.
