    Camp Verde Community LibraryCamp Verde AZ (May 14, 2020) – Camp Verde Community Library will enter the next phase of Building on COVID-19 Successes and Returning Stronger to open to the public starting Monday, May 18 at 9:00a. The library will be open 40 hours/week instead of the usual 60 – Monday-Friday 9:00a-5:00p. Library meeting rooms will not be open for use. Toys and games in the Children’s and Teen Libraries will be unavailable at this time. As the library returns to the basics of library services, we encourage patrons to checkout books, movies, audiobooks, music, and more, to greet one-another and practice good manners, to discover a new interest or return to a neglected one.

    Staff will work before opening and after closing to maintain healthy cleaning protocols adopted by the library to minimize risk in our community. Specific guidelines will be posted in each area of the library where we expect our patrons to assist us in creating good experiences for everyone. The following general guidelines will be in place and enforced through Sunday, July 5, 2020:

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
