From the article:

In response to today’s tough economic times, the Sacramento, Calif., Public Library is providing a new Web resource for citizens: MoneySmart@your library. The new page at the library’s Web site brings together practical information on saving money, finding work, dealing with mortgage issues and more. The page presents a wide variety of information that’s been assembled by librarians from numerous sources.

The tips on economic survival come at a good time for many citizens. “The Sacramento region has been particularly hard hit by some of the economic realities that the country is facing right now,” said Gary Shaffer, marketing director for the library. “It’s the library adapting to our customers’ needs. We felt there was a general need for something like this for our community.”
