Library Commissioner Reacts To Budget Cuts

State agencies continue to feel the budget squeeze as the next fiscal year approaches July first. One agency, the Mississippi Library Commission, is making plans to absorb a $1 million budget cut that will trickle down to local libraries. As a result, libraries across the state are making plans to absorb the cuts. Library Commission Executive Director Susan Cassagne tells MPB's Mark Rigsby each library system's administrative board will determine how to handle having less money to operate with next year.

Teaching CPR On The Gulf Coast

The American Heart Association on the Mississippi Gulf Coast is trying to teach twelve thousand people how to do hands-only CPR. Hands-only CPR has two steps; the first is to call 9-1-1; the second is to push hard and fast on the center of the chest.The association will hold events all this week to teach the life-saving technique. Tiffany Guitterez is the association’s regional director. She told MPB's Evelina Burnett many Gulf Coast residents don't know the benefits of hands-only CPR.

Everyday Tech

MPB's Desare Frazier spoke with Elsa Foley, a car safety engineer with Nissan, about the importance of tire safety. Foley says a safe trip starts with a plan.
