Stop Trashing My Library!

Libby Post and some associates have launched a new website/blog. www.stoptrashingmylibrary.org is "designed to forcefully correct the untruth said about libraries in blogs and on newspaper comment pages. Those of us in the library world have to start responding to the inaccuracies and, honestly, the just plain stupid things people say about our public libraries."

The group will also have a corresponding Facebook page going up shortly. Check it out. Send them stories and links. Comment on what’s there and take action—go back to the newspapers where the negative comments are made and correct them, tell them how important libraries are the fabric of our communities.
