The new Master Plan for the Jefferson Parish Library system calls for ABANDONING the Wagner Library once the New North Kenner branch is built?
We have 4 schools (Bissonet Plaza, St. Philip Neri, Atonement Lutheran and Bonnabel) basically within walking distance of this library and three more schools within approx. 2 miles (St. Ann, Schneckenberger and John Q. Adams).
The plan projects that Wagner Library would be closed by 2015.
