Hi. I’ve gotten one report that people can’t see the links in the header above. If anyone else is having this problem can you drop me an email and tell me what OS/browser you are using? Thanks. Also, I am trying to add more library school resources to the links page. If anyone knows of a library school that has a newsletter or blog [not just a home page] please drop me a note.

Okay librarians, let’s get this straight. You stack books in a building for a living. Are we clear? You run books under that beeping thing and give them to those of us who are too cheap to buy them in stores. You are not arbiters of free speech, the Constitution or our freaking civil rights.
