Pierre Bottineau Library

edit

The library in 2015

  • ALT1:... that a sign on the old Pierre Bottineau Library informed patrons "the library is now full" when it reached its capacity of 40 people?

  • The article is long enough (2,611 characters) and new enough (created on 2 Jan). Its within policy. The hook is not too long (102 original and 133 characters for Alt1). I think that original hook is better than Alt1 (which does not include picture?) because its more concise. None of them is very hooky, because there are plenty of small size libraries around the world, but I guess its hard to have hooky hook in case of some small library. The image is free, but I don't think it shows up very well in small size. If there are better pictures in other hooks, maybe this one could be dropped. Good to go, AGF for sources with necessary subscription. Very nice and concise small article. Well done to both authors.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 09:50, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
