Library austerity

Via Librarianista.

  1. Our wonderful library in Des Plaines, IL is now undergoing cutbacks from the mayor because he wasn't consulted when the library director choose an internal successor.

    Now he's stacking the library board with people of like mind who are cutting the library's budget to shreds.

    I attended the last library meeting and read the quote from Isaac Asimov I gleaned from TYWKIWDBI.

    The barbarians are no longer at the gates - they've already set fire to the city. Today's Fahrenheit 451 no longer needs matches, we have our civic leaders to thank.
