[LM_NET] Harry Potter Librarian

[Mary Milligan <mfgmilligan@ATT.NET>]

I really am distressed by the way the librarian
is depicted in HP #6. Her portrayals in the other
volumes were annoying, but this portrayal is dreadful.
I realize Rowlings is playing it for a laugh, but isn't
that the usual funny librarian stereotype? And I didn't
find it funny! Is this just me?

It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me.
It is the books that will never be written. The books
that will never be read. And all due to the fear of censorship.
As always, young readers will be the real losers." — Judy Blume
