I check out books and DVDs almost every week, and sometimes multiple times a week. It is a great resource. Have also taken some of the classes offered.

k san

only very occasionally.

We have supported the library since we moved to Redmond in 1968

I don't own a printer, and if I cannot focus on paperwork or errands at home I usually can at the library.

JohnWayne Kenneth Pool

It's a nice, relaxing place to read or use my laptop, pass time if I need to between appointments.

Justin Gottlieb

It's a Library -> the place of everlasting knowledge.

Patricia Brady-McKinney

All the time. Books, Kindle books, CD's. The library is a wonderful resource for the community.

Robert 'Lew' Lewandowski

I generally read about two books per month. Our library is a valuable source of information and entertainment.

Ann Harbert Evensen

The library is one of the best values around. I borrow several hundred books a year.

Kerie Raymond

I'm there a few times a week. Usually put items on hold online and pick them up at the branch. So glad to hear of the new hours and sometimes it's hard to make it there during opening hours after work

I haven't been to the library in years. I can afford to buy my own books. Still, I completely support public librarys as they were the only access to books I had growing up poor.

Just don't have a need any more! Doesn't mean I don't or won't support a library for those that want/need one.

Switched to YouTube from Cable like it so much better because of what we normally watch is programmed for us.

Adam Nixon

I'd say it's like 60/40 in favor of things like user generated content, but it has more to do with time than anything else. Due to things like work and chores, I just don't have time during the day for movies/TV. But for a few hours in the evening, I tend to watch more movies/TV, which I prefer.

Andrew Cozzini

This is one of those where I'm voting the honest truth, even though I'd prefer it be the other (while still making time for Geekvolution, of course). I think it's because of how casually I can spend hours on YouTube, as opposed to being intentional about catching up on content I intend to consume.

Is someone who lets their pet off-leash in restricted areas considered a 'bad pet owner?'

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

robert weber

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

Kati Magana

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

Kim Ritchie

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

Ann Thomas

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

Deborah Albright

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

Nic Secor

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

Payton Dixson

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

k san

No, that's too big a generalization. However, those owners should never let their pet off-leash in those areas.

robert weber

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
