Lake Luzerne library to reopen after Drag Queen Story Hour controversy

The Rockwell Falls Public Library in Lake Luzerne says it has hired a new manager and plans to reopen next month.

A library that closed after public complaints reopened on Friday.

The Rockwell Falls Public Library in Lake Luzerne announced it hired a new manager last month.

Now the library says it is ready to welcome people back in.

The library was forced to close last September, when two-thirds of its staff quit, including the director.

That came after a public meeting where people spoke out against a planned drag queen story hour.
