[LM_NET] Gen: article promoting school library program

[edward nizalowski <enizalowski@NVCS.STIER.ORG>]

Hello,
        There is an article in our local newspaper (Press and Sun-Bulletin, 
Binghamton, NY) concerning a unit that I do with seniors on Information Ethics, 
Rights and Responsiblities.  You can go to their homepage, pressconnects.com, do a 
site search on my last name (Nizalowski) and that will bring up the article.

"He spoke about libraries as a place of refuge for many people including the 
homeless and mentally ill stating that a 'librarian must be a nurse, poet and 
social worker.'  . . . . Libraries can be a shelter, both physically and 
emotionally, and that without libraries, communities may become mindless shopping 
malls."

From the article by Terri Summey, ALA Cognotes, January 2006 concerning an address 
by Andrei Codrescu at the ALA's President's Program
