BELLE CHASSE, La. - Libraries are important centers for any community.
But nearly nine years after Hurricane Katrina, Port Sulphur still doesn't have one. At least, not one that is permanent.
Currently, the only local library for children like Jaynee Saik, 8, of Port Sulphur, is housed in a small trailer.
Plaquemines Parish President Billy Nungesser admits it’s not in good shape.
“I'm hoping the library could get bigger so we could have the yearly summer-reading program there instead of the YMCA,” said Saik.
