Ricks Memorial Library is the first in the state to offer the latest technology in digital film viewing and scanning.
Employees at the local library have eagerly spent the past week familiarizing themselves with the ST ViewScan microfilm digital film viewer and scanner.
Gone are the days of older microfilms filled with scratches and unreadable text. Now library patrons can read microfilms with crisp, white clarity. -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
