The last was formed in the late 1940's, and only 3 viable county libraries exist today (Dubuque, Scott, and Woodbury).<br /><br />Iowa law allows for the formation of library districts that are different from county libraries in name only. The new law has many flaws; there has been no serious attempt to form a library district.<br /><br />Anything is possible. A lot of things are improbable. Getting other cities in Polk County that have developed excellent libraries to merge into a county library district would seem to fall in the latter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
