A Movable Feast

摘要

When the Camden County (N.J.) Library System (CCLS) expanded in 2011-2012 from six branches to eight, its newest buildings were opened in the city of Camden-an area that CCLS Director Linda Devlin identifies as a food desert. "The city of Camden has only one grocery store, and most city residents rely on small stores and bodegas for food," says Devlin. "These stores have a more limited supply of healthy food, which limits meal planning."
