As someone who has gone through years of allergy desensitization and who still needs a rescue inhalers in the presence of cats, this issue needs to be taken as seriously as peanuts around kids!!<br><br>On Tuesday, July 12, 2016, Jaema Berman &lt;<a href="mailto:jberman@tln.lib.mi.us">jberman@tln.lib.mi.us</a>&gt; wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Mary, Here&#39;s a really good article about why the Spencer Public Library (Former home of Dewey) established a permanent prohibition against having further pets residing in the library.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Library dogs or cats<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
HI,<br>
Do any Michigan libraries house a &quot;library&quot; dog or cat? (Like Dewey the library cat?)<br>
<br>
<br>
Just curious,<br>
