Re: [SWANboard] Tribune Article on Orland Increases

Aaron et al, I think that including a statement from a public library director would add credence.

They cannot resist that. The RAILS Leadership team felt that it portrayed consortium in a bad light, so Dee suggested she write a letter to the editor about the topic of resource sharing. I offered to help with the letter. Dee also was thinking that it would be good to have a letter from a SWAN library director. Any thoughts on if a letter should be sent or if we should approach a library director. Dee was thinking of David Seleb, mostly because of a large public library joining SWAN.
