DeKALB – The DeKalb Public Library has asked a Chicagoland-based media company to help craft the reasoning behind its planned expansion.

At the library’s board of trustees meeting Wednesday, library director Dee Coover said she has asked Morning Star Media to craft a case statement that will be necessary for a future fundraising campaign.

Coover said it could cost between $850 and $1,200, the spending of which was authorized at an Aug. 29 meeting. Coover said a final cost has not been given. She asked the company to have it finished in October.
