LM_NET: Library Media Networking
On this note, I recently replied to a library student who said the
Masters program in Columbus was unstable. I'm not admitting to gray
(don't talk to that hairdresser downtown), but we're not going to work
forever, at least I'm not. I'm looking forward to possibly retiring in 4
years, at 52, with 30 years of service and moving on to some related line
of work. Are there enough library school students to take our place, or
will this be a convenient way to *consolidate* positions (read: hire one
person to fill three jobs)?
