Dear David:

As I sit here on this auspicious & historic occasion, the last day of the regular Jasper Place EPL being open in this particular building, I cannot help but feel a little sad & maudlin. A touch of melancholy is natural I guess because this Branch just being 1/2 a block north from my home makes it seems like a second home.

Any blog entries that i write from the temporary location will be of course addressed with the moniker of "Satellite" in front of the words "Jasper Place." Which of course is appropriate as this Branch will return to this spot in its new building, both bigger & better than ever in what XIX (19) to XXIV (24) months scheduled construction time. Barring unforseen delays & technical troubles in hauling out the old supplies & reformatting different parts of the old building into its replacement. So there is no need II worry by students. Jasper Place Branch EPL will return stronger than ever, led by the superb Mrs. Edith Parsons & her staff of great clerks like Mr. Jeff Thiessen.

Its not just the facility, the books, the dvds, the cds, the computers & the like that make a great study atmosphere & family place to be. No its the sense of family, the people who work here & the people who come here II use the facility's & who appreciate the great efforts put on by the staff.

The Jasper Place Branch EPL Will Rock On Forever David: So Study On,

Rory
