Fairfax County public libraries are set to lay off more than 100 employees to help close a $4 million budget gap.

Officials told workers this week that the layoffs would include full- and part-time employees. Under a proposal approved Tuesday by the library's governing board, library hours will be scaled back on Fridays.

The cuts would affect departments including library operations, administration and technical operations.

WHSV Poll
A committee in the House of Delegates has sent a bill to the House floor that would allow private, faith-based adoption agencies to discriminate against prospective parents based on their sexual orientation. Would you support this?

Yes, I think if it is a private organization it's okay.
No, there should be no discrimination.
It should depend on a case by case basis.
