Some notes, mostly digression-
The Arizona State Library, Phoenix, website, has no notes yet about the attempt to re-open. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation donated in the past; don't know if they can be prevailed on to do so again.

Lake Havasu City (abt. 50,000) is the largest city in Mohave county (county seat at Kingman, abt. 23,000); other communities very small. Libraries are far between and outside of small occasional grants from the state, always operate on a shoestring. The county is about 13,500 sq. mi.; outside of San Bernardino Co. CA and a couple in NV, the largest in the states.
