I wonder if the late Milton Friedman would have viewed something for which
one has to exchange private information as "Free?"

 

I don't.

 

It amazes many of our patrons & friends, those who sign up for "free" goods
and services, how much spam they receive each day.  What a coincidence.

 

A not-quite-hypothetical question:  If a library user asks your opinion
about signing up for some "free" program, what kind of information does the
information professional give?

This web site requires a login and password.  I find this 
sort of thing very annoying and probably would not use.
