The secondary branches of the KPL may not be state-of-the-art, but keep in mind that the WPL only had two branches until very recently (John Harper opened in 2009, and the east side branch just last year), so of course their buildings are going to feel nicer than what the KPL built between 1971 and 1982.

I also expect that KPL uses its usage/traffic data to allocate budget to its various locations. The satellite locations will never have as many books on the shelves but you can go online and reserve a book, and have it delivered to your local library branch. Super easy.
Great suggestion for sure and a nice way to still have access to all the books circulating in the KPL system.
