Re: Library Quotes

[Susan Roscoe <SusanR50@AOL.COM>]

Hi everyone,
    I am looking for a quote I saw when I was a member of this Listserv (I am
now retired). It went something like
 "What a school thinks of its library is a measure of what it thinks of
education"
Can you help? I am writing a letter to the local paper in criticism of budget
cuts to the library budget (and staff cuts) . This year has been really hard
on those of us (Elementary LMS) that were left on the job after 2 of us
retired. In fact one more LM S   quit  midyear, another is retiring
prematurely. Permanent subs are staffing the libraries in several schools.
The  district has made all computer teachers full time (they had been
halftime) and claim they have not been able to find qualified people for the
openings in the LMCs.
   I know I retired at the right time, but our students and faculties are the
victims of this  negligence. Oh well. I wish those of  you on the job,  a
relaxing and restful
 summer vacation.
Thanks for your help .
