On October 13, 2009 the Nevada County Board of Supervisors in Nevada County California voted to approve the request for contract proposals for the management of the County Library. County Executive Officer Rick Haffey explained the county would maintain control over the facilities, but a private company would run day-to-day operations and the library employees would no longer be employed by the county.
Haffey would not call this privatization but I wonder why he is avoiding this word.
Just google "Definitions of privatization" and see if the shoe fits.
Privatization: The process of private, for-profit businesses taking over the provision of public services.
