[Publib] (no subject)

[Sara Rodgers]

I think the PUBLIB listserv should be a forum for librarians to express their questions, concerns, advice and even views as they pertain to work in public libraries.  Sometimes things in our work cause us to be aware of, react to or even create a policy issues that can be regarded as political in nature.  We should not censor each other.

be the focus.
