Reference Library
When discussing issues of politics, policy, and social conditions, it is necessary to have good information on which to base
decisions and form opinions. To assist the ease with which this can be achieved, we are creating a new on-line library at the Kalamazoo County Democrat On-Line. We will add more documents as time goes
by, eventually creating a large depository of information useful to our visitors. If you have documents you would like to submit for inclusion, please email them to us in plain text format only. Not all
submissions will be accepted. For information on the type of documents we are seeking, email the editor.
