Can you remember the last time anything a librarian wrote was in the Daypop Top 40? I think I’ll leave Rochelle’s words on the subject as the last thing I’m also thinking about all of this.
if Gorman were not the President-Elect of a major professional organization, I’d not be as het up. I’ve read more concentrated bad-mouthing about libraries, librarians and the ALA the past two days, than I’ve ever seen, and that’s not A-OK. I’m trying to put a positive spin on it and think of it as a growing pain within the profession. We’re long overdue for a growth spurt.
