Libraries are about so much more than books. They’re places where people of all ages can learn something new, take a class, and get to know their neighbors. I’m proud we included funding in the county budget to help make a new Essex library possible, if voters approve the referendum. I’m grateful to our federal, state and local partners for helping move this project forward.

At 98 years old, Abner Gaston Jr. finds a few hours each day to sit in his favorite chair and read. This summer, he completed his local library’s summer reading challenge for the second consecutive year — and plans to do it again next year. wapo.st/4gKyjb1

At 98, he took on a summer reading challenge. He plans to do it again at 99.

As Abner Gaston Jr. nears the century mark, his son said, going to the library helps him get out of the house and meet other people.
