Review the claim Joshua makes, as well as the reasoning he cites to support it. The funding of the public library should be protected because the library offers important programs and services that benefit the whole community. According to Library Director Sarah Tomlinson, whom I interviewed on May 6, the budget cuts will force the library to end services that support local creators whose work enriches our city.

Is Joshua's reasoning sound?

A) Yes, Joshua's reasoning is sound because Joshua is a member of the community who benefits from the library's services.

B) Yes, Joshua's reasoning is sound because it uses a valid source to show that the library's reduced budget will affect people whose work benefits the whole community.

C) No, Joshua's reasoning is not sound because he hasn't asked every member of the community whether they benefit from these creators' works.

D) No, Joshua's reasoning is not sound because Library Director Sarah Tomlinson is not an expert on library funding.
