How do you think libraries will be affected by the upcoming changes
(February, I think) regarding lead content in all items aimed at
children up to the age of twelve? Does the new requirement for total
lead on children's products apply to children's books, cassettes and
CD's, printed game boards, posters and other printed goods used for
children's education? Does anyone understand how this is going to
affect those items which are already in our collections? I heard only a
brief discussion of this on our local news last night and it was focused
primarily on consignment shopping. I am writing in response to a query
from a staff member who also works at our local public library.
Has anyone spotted a good article on this subject? If so, please
respond to me off the list.
Thank you.
