Dear colleagues,
I pass this along, with permission, from the Feminist list. Besides
reading this Wired blog article myself, I have no further
information.

Hi everyone,

A colleague of mine alerted me to this.  Has anyone else
heard about this?  If true, I think the women's/feminist
groups within ALA need to take a stand.

Thoughts, ideas?
