Another bummer for NLW, ALA reports that 41 states have had recent library funding cuts. They have set up a page to collect data on specific instances of budget cuts, feel free to share your funding miseries with them there.
vandalism as art
This link has been making the rounds. San Francisco Public had been having a problem with vandalism. Over 600 gay and lesbian themed books were defaced and left inthe library with slips of paper advertising a bible radio station. The man who did the damage was finally caught, but the library was having a hard time deciding what to do with all the remains of the vandalized books. “Reversing Vandalism” was their solution and is available online and in selected SFO branch libraries. [thanks all]
