Interview with David Price, Director of the Sonoma County Library, who discusses the state of the library system and the challenge of expanding library services to meet the needs of a growing population. In 1992, Price succeeded David Sabsay, who had served the library from its establishment as a county-wide joint powers agency in 1975 until his retirement. Price was accused of mismanaging the system and took a new position with the San Francisco Public Library rather than renew his 3-year contract.Additional Descriptive Notes: This video recording is part of a large series of television programs entitled "Sonoma County in the [70s, etc.]," were produced between the late 1970s and mid-1990s for Sonoma County public access cable television under direction of the Sonoma County Public Information Office, now known as the County Administrator's Office.
