Downturn Puts New Stresses on Libraries 

By SUSAN SAULNY and KAREN ANN CULLOTTA 


ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. — The public library here had just closed its doors one 
evening in December when two homeless men who had been using the stacks as shelter 
from the cold got into a fight on the outside steps. 

What began as bickering took a violent turn when one of the men pulled out a knife 
and stabbed the other six times, leaving him bleeding beside the book drop.
