There was a car fire in the Joel D. Valdez library parking garage on Friday at 8:50 a.m. The Tucson Fire Department responded and had the fire controlled by 9:05 a.m. No one was hurt, but the library has been closed due to smoke damages. The Joel D. Valdez branch will remain close until Tuesday, Jan. 21, according to an email we received from Pima County Communications Coordinator Diane Luber.

So, that means the "Is the 10 Ton Carrier of Civility Beginning to Turn?" with the League of Women Voters event that was mentioned in our T Q&A column has been cancelled.
