Re: Help! Weeding after a flood!

[Donald Pippin <bagend48@NETSCAPE.NET>]

I have just begun work in my 3rd library, with a mere 11 years experience. I have 
been blessed this time with supportive administrators who are backing my updating 
and heavy weeding of the collection (approximately half of the fiction collection 
will go and about 20% of the nonfiction this first year.  I sent Jan a note saying 
that I felt her methods were sound.

But...

I am disturbed that she is doing the Librarians job.  If there is a librarian the 
principal should go to him to do this.  I would be incensed if I was in his 
position.  How would she feel if someone else was brought into the computer lab to 
clean it up.

Ethically I have some problems with what she is doing.
