I wonder if the email many public libraries received has any connection to the request for documents made a while back by some supposedly non-profit organization.

Well, I just received this a few minutes ago.  Does your sender have the initials CP?  Curious.

Dear Library Director,
 
I am a donor to the library. I believe that libraries are vital to our community and that spending for our library is just too low. Is there an upcoming public meeting that I could attend to elaborate my views?
 
Thanks,

Melissa,

I received the message below today.  The sender's name in his/her email address and the same in the signature line were off by one letter.

"Dear Library Director,

I am a patron of the library. I believe that libraries are vital to our community and that spending for our library is just too low. Is there an upcoming public meeting that I could attend to elaborate my views?

Thanks,"

Hi all--

I received this e-mail  yesterday.  Has any of you gotten something similar?  I can't find the writer as a resident of the district or the county and am wondering about motivation.

Thank you.

Dear Library Director,

I am a taxpayer and a voter. I believe that libraries are vital to our community but that spending for our library is just too high. Is there an upcoming public meeting that I could attend to elaborate my views?

Thanks,
