MPR News Update for Jan. 6

Good morning! Mostly cloudy with isolated flurries. Highs from minus 5 to 5. A wind chill advisory is in effect for all but east-central portions of the state this morning. Speaking of our great state, Minnesota sure loves its libraries: The state's library systems have more than 3.8 million registered users, out of a population of roughly 5.5 million. Combined, the libraries make more than 52 million loans of books, e-books, DVDs and other items in a year. So what was at the top of the lending list in 2016? Turns out library users can't get enough of thrillers, World War II dramas and the idea of organizing their lives. | Forecast | Updraft weather blog
