Children are not welcome at the Meredith Public Library?

There is a board of library trustees. If I were the parent I would be giving them a piece of my mind.

You pay $12,000 in property taxes and your kid can't get a free library card?

You can quote all of the rules and regulations and NH residency requirements - the bottom line is that this situation is absurd.

Give the teenager a library card and move on.

We've only heard one side of the story, and this from the OP who titled a thread about his/her 18 year old adult daughter being asked to pay $10 for a library card "Children are not welcome at the Meredith Public Library." Not exactly accurate.

My comments have not been about the library's policy, other than to express the opinion that changing legal residence to avoid paying $10 for a library card (as you seem to be suggesting) is a bit extreme. Rather, I have taken issue with your earlier statement that "In the good ole US of A one can claim residency anywhere," which is simply not the case.
