[Publib] Libraries on Keith Olbermann's Countdown

I like Olbermann too, that's why I was watching it.

It wasn't just a focus on the sexual predator (who surprisingly was stupid 
enough to go on camera before he found out he was caught). It was the 
reference to all the other negative incidents that occurred in the library, 
including violence.

I think there should be privacy screens on the computer. At my last library 
we were talking about having a specialized computer for medical information. 
All kinds of other information is private as well.
