Colleagues,

I had an interesting discussion with a friend regarding the following.
I would like to hear your opinions too:

Do you think that school librarians are locked out / side swiped by the
Technology department in the schools on many issues, such a
administrative privileges for logging into the school computers,
decisions to purchase software and hardware, etc.  If it was not for us,
I do not think that there would be IT specialists in many school
divisions. 

I feel it is due to the innovative library/ media center programs in the
past and today that the Technology departments at schools gained their
road to fame.  I know that there were always a Technology department,
but they were more a technical department working on the school's
administrative software.

What are your thoughts?
