NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Due to a burst valve, the Bellevue Library branch flooded on Jan. 8.
They haven't found any damage to books so far, but until at least Jan. 15, the branch will be closed for repairs.
They are asking patrons to return books and materials to another NPL location or keep them while the branch's bookdrop is closed. Due dates will be adjusted and there are no overdue fines.
The library says they are still assessing damage and how much the repairs will cost — crews are still on site actively working to reverse the damage.
Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
