I know that there’s a sign-in sheet so when people come into the library, they sign in. I saw the Minister’s comments yesterday talking about how much it costs, how many books were checked out and I know for a fact that when people go to the law library, they don’t all sign in and I know that when people go there, they might look at books and they might not sign them out, they might use those materials there. My concern is that while there might be a reduced cost to the government here, this reduced access to materials is just going to result in the government having to supply these materials in another way. Provide a library full of materials to the GNWT lawyers, otherwise, the department is going to working without all the information it needs.
Has the Minister looked at what costs might rise for the government in terms of procuring those materials in relation to the potential cost savings of closing the library?
