The best answer to those types of questions is, politely, "Oh, really?
I had'nt heard that. Do you have the source of that information?"
If they have the source, check it out. If not (and they usually
don't), and the info. seems reliable, you can always check here or in
other library information sources. Don't feel bad about not knowing
EVERYTHING - you CAN'T! That's why we have such great participation on
LM_NET - there's lots of us who don't know everything, and we have this
great resource to help us out.
My two cents.

Yesterday, I was introduced to a new member of our school
administration. After glancing at the shelves, she told me that she
had
heard that K-8 school libraries were doing away with the Dewey Decimal
System. I was caught off guard and feeling stupid! Should I be
pulling
off my spine labels and moving to LC labeling, or something? Any
information on this would be much appreciated! Thank you. =20
