“Yes. That's a tax that doesn't put a strain on people on a day-to-day basis, and I really do think we need a new library.”

— Carrie Madden, Kansas University researcher/instructor, Lawrence

“Sure. I think it would provide a lot of important services for the city of Lawrence, and I can't think of any alternate sources there would be.”

— Martin Moore, land use facilitator, Lawrence

“Absolutely, because often things like a new library and other city structures are only paid for with tax money, and I think that tax money goes for a good cause that I have no problem paying.”

— Aly Beery, teacher, Lawrence

“I guess I would have to see more specific details of how that money would be spent before I would be in favor of it.”

— Charles Van Ness, electrical technician, Lawrence
