  • Bookmobile shrinks but still on the job

    The Trimble County Public Library bookmobile is getting smaller, but will still be doing a big job. When the bookmobile broke down in January, the library discovered that the cost to attempt repairs on the 1993 bread truck style bookmobile was more than the vehicle is worth.

    Through the years, since the community first started bookmobile service, new vehicles and service were paid in part by state grants. Those grants are no longer available due to state budget cuts and bookmobiles are very expensive.

  • Trimble spared in redistricting

    Henry and Carroll counties are no longer part of the state’s 26th Senate district. Those counties, which, historically, have been served by Republican Sen. Ernie Harris, now fall into the 20th District, represented by Sen. Paul Hornback, also a Republican.

    Population growth statewide, as documented by the 2010 U.S. census, means districts for both the state House of Representatives and Senate were redrawn, approved and signed into law by Gov. Steve Beshear last week. Lawmakers are still working to redraw the six districts for the U.S. House of Representatives.
