[Libs-Or] Public libraries as charging sites for electric vehicles

[Judy Anderson]

And are the costs paid by the user or by tax dollars?

Are there any safety/liability issues? Pros/cons with parking and this is not my job sort of things?

Hi, all. I came across the item below today

http://www.azcentral.com/community/surprise/articles/2011/12/12/20111212charging-stations-electric-cars-coming-peoria.html#ixzz1jBhut3jq

and noticed this rather interesting part of the article, " Any location where you will potentially spend an hour or two is a good place for a charger, and the library is a place where users return week after week, not once every few months."

I just wondered if any libraries in Oregon are doing this. Librarians pretty enterprising when it comes to community outreach and public services.
