With record-breaking high temperatures in the Salt Lake Valley this summer, Salt Lake County is reminding the public that its senior centers, libraries, and recreational facilities are open to anyone seeking relief from the heat.

Global climate change means that people will be exposed to extreme heat.  Libraries are a place to go for a cool zone.  Use of libraries as a cold shelter was a plot point in the movie "The Public" (2018).
