And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
........I have worked in libraries for twenty-five years, and agree that the field is no longer run by “grown-ups”. I have fond memories of the librarians of yore, but the people entering the field are now activists, much like teachers. The sole place I have encountered “pronouns” in my rural area is in e-mails from fellow library directors. These are frequently sent to rally others to fight “censorship”, the censorship of sexually explicit materials from the children’s section. I have asked to be removed from these partisan e-mail lists, and now my fellow directors do not return my calls.
I cannot begin to describe the drivel that I am being sent to add to the collection. Books for children these days are ugly, with illustrations that are primitive and devoid of artistic talent. They have overt, preachy messages.......
That is something I have never understood...
ReplyDeleteRock Climbing or Librarians? I married one so I'll understand if you choose #2

Thanks for the first person description. Sad what academia has become. We should have seen it coming.
DeleteI wonder if her glasses will fall off?
ReplyDeleteI hope she has a strap or lanyard on them.
DeleteBetter off with sports goggles. Only slip and face first into rockside she goes
DeleteShe's kind of hot - in a librarian sort of way.
ReplyDeleteDon't let her invite you "back in the stacks." You might not return the same man.
DeleteShe’s just hot.
DeleteI love it when some scraggly haired rock climbing gal suddenly ties her hair back, whips her big glasses on and becomes a hot librarian.
ReplyDeleteI got a "rock" that she can climb!!!
