Personally, I abhor anonymous postings, and in the comments toá=my post on “Personal Politics and ALA” a bit agoá=I saw how cowards hide behind their anonymity to insult and defame distinguished members of our profession. It was such a distasteful display, I was moved to try to find a way to bring accountability to the comments while still allowing those who need to remain anonymous to do so. I discussed theá=problem with colleagues in the field and hereá=at LJ. We can’tá=take the time to requireá=all posters, anonymous or not, toá=supply LJ withá=their real names and ways to reach them to verify that information. We decidedá=to allow anonymous posts as we do now, along with comments with real names or pseudonyms.á=We will, however, watch all postedá=comments. If they descend intoá=nasty ad hominem insults, slanderous attacks, or such cowardly stuff as we saw before, anonymous, pseudonymous, or not, we will simply remove them. In other words, if the posters won’t be accountable and responsible, we’ll do it for them. We will edit commentsá=off our blog. Some may call this “censorship,” but we see it as necessary editing. When I once accused my editor, boss, and mentor, Eric Moon, of censoring my writing his response was a classic: “That’s the trouble with you John,” he said, “you don’t understand the difference between censorship and editing.”

Kurt Vonnegut Jr. was always one of my favorites, and I have missed his writings for a long while. I was deeply saddened to hear that he died yesterday. I have missed him, his voice, for a while now. I used to be able to quote long passages from Cats Cradle, and tell the jokes out of Jailbird. I was moved and touched by Slaughterhouse Five, and I guess I’ll buy Man Without a Country, the collecton of his essays published in 2005, so I can read him again.

I met Vonnegut two or three times, at those cocktail parties around Manhattan or at book events, and once I even interviewed him at his house up on the east side. I remember Jill Krementz, the noted photographer who became his wife, coming to the door as saying: “Hi, I’m Jill Krementz and I live here too.” One of my favorite Vonnegut memories is when Carey Horwitz, one of the young editors on the Library Journal Book Review came to my office. “I got an interview with Vonnegut!” he said very excited. I was impressed. “Anything you think I should ask him?” Horwitz inquired. “Well, it is for LJ, why don’t you ask him if he’s had any library experiences,” I responded predictably. The interview was published in the April 15, 1973 issue of LJ and we’ve posted it on our web site so you can read how Vonnegut answered that question. Check it out. You’ll be surprised.

I went down to÷šcity hall in Stamford, CT, where I live to watch while the Board of Finance cut some $11 million out of the÷šcity budget proposed by Mayor Dan Malloy, who÷šI have always supported. It was a depressing night. The meeting room was packed with citizens, some with the typical÷šplacards of the anti-tax cadres that÷šalways haunt local politics. There were workers from some of our÷šcity departments and unions like the police and firemen. There were two÷šmembers of our÷šBoard of Education, which took a nearly $5 million cut from its budget. The schools will still take about 60 percent of our city’s spending. Ernie DiMattia, the president of the Ferguson Library, which is our public library, was there watching while they cut about $175,000÷šout of his budget. That was about half of the increase he had proposed to÷šexpand the hours of the library so that people would have easier access to it. I don’t know how it will all turn out in terms of library service, but it demonstrated, once again, how far removed politicians sometimes get from the need for library service. Our library is probably the most used public service in Stamford, except perhaps÷šfor garbage collection and streets. It is “touched” as one Board÷šmember put it, by more citizens than nearly any other÷šcity service. The Advocate, local daily÷špaper didn’t even mention the library in its÷šonline report of the meeting.÷šOne of the two Republicans on the Board of Finance wanted to double the library budget cut, suggesting that the library make it up with private fund raising, and citing a nearby very affluent community as an example. One of the four Democrats quickly responded that Stamford is not as affluent and our library is terribly important to our less affluenct citizens and the children. The Democrats prevailed, since they hold four of six seats on this board, but our÷šlibrary÷šwas injured by the blow, and probably won’t be able to expand its hours to fully serve our people. I’m a true believer in Library 2.0, and more important, in the view that public libraries are essential to÷šinformed, wise self-government in a democracy. I was saddened that only that one Democrat, Michael Pollard, on our÷šBoard of Finance seemed to understand how important our library is to Stamford. I’ve been only slightly involved in local politics here, but now that I’m mostly retired, I’m going to get more involved, if only to try to help Ernie and his dedicated librarians educate the politicians to the importance of this public agency. It may not help; democracy doesn’t÷šalways bring the best and brightest on to our boards and governing bodies, but I believe it is still the best system. Now we all have to get to work÷što make it better and to help our fellow citizens understand why libraries are vital to that work.

Conservatives, blogging away as “librarians,” still try to convince us that ALA has no business taking stands on issues that are not specifically related to libraries, although it is difficult to know where to draw the line between what is a library issue and what is not. The most recent rant about this was from the Heretical Librarian, that conservative librarian who worries that he will become “a mirror image of Mark Rosenzweig.” He isn’t a “mirror image” but he’s no less personal, political, or ideological than Mark in his posts as a “librarian.” He cites the Annoying Librarian, who in her own anonymous blog ranted on about how how those of us on the left always mix up the personal and political. I have to confess, I’m guilty of that. As long as I have been a member of ALA, more than 30 years on the record, and by recollection since the wonderful Sixties, ALA has frequently taken stands on political issues. Many of those ALA positions would not have measured up to the terms Heretical or Annoyed would apply to what ALA is allowed to speak about.

I look at it this way. ALA is not a library. ALA is a membership organization, and if those members or their representatives on the ALA Council decide that war, in Iraq or Vietnam, is an issue about which they wish to take a stand, and that it is related to librarianship, that is legitimate. Indeed, war is a library issue, as is any other issue that raises questions about how we will allocate public resources. I just can’t understand why right wingers like Heretical and Annoyed, who constantly spout their views either anonymously or not, but always as librarians, find it wrong for ALA members to vote to do the same. It is important that everyone else in our society make the connection between libraries and war and the other problems we face as a society. It is just as important for us, as librarians, to make sure the people realize that while librarians practice a certain kind of neutrality on the job, they are active political people in their personal lives and in the organizations to which they belong. Librarians, as librarians, do have social responsibilities, and they are duty bound to express their views about them, either as individual librarians or as members of library associations. That is how we’ve always done it in this country, whether we’re auto workers, migrant farm laborerers, miners, doctors, or librarians. That is the American way, after all.

As long as I’ve been a librarian I’ve heard that awful question from the MBAs and others whose religion is commerce and the bottom line. ”Why don’t they run it like a business?” they ask of librarians. So on my regular visit to Karen Schneiders Free Range Librarian, I was linked to her letter to the Library of Congress on ALA TechSource. I was really disturbed when I read Karen sayng this about the role of libraries and librarians: “We have moved from the librarian as information artisan—a professional creating and using tools to manage information—to the librarian as surrogate vendor, facilitating what is essentially the offshoring of thousands of years of information into private hands.”

Of course, I was certain that Karen’s comment demanded an answer, but then I realized that what she said has always been true of librarians and library service. From the very beginning, even back in 1852 when the Boston Trustees advocated the founding of the public library in Boston, they said the same thing, only they had a very different spin on it. They said of the mission of the public library they would create that it was what “ought to be done towards satisfying the demands for healthy nourishing reading made by the great masses of our people, who cannot be expected to purchase such reading for themselves.” (Upon The Objects To Be Attained of a Public Library, Trustees of the Public Library of the City of Boston, 1852, p.15) They didn’t want to be what Karen calls “a surrrogate vendor.” On the contrary, the purpose of that early public library was to liberate the information from business, to buy it for a public library, a public agency, and set it free so the people could get it without having to individually buy from businesses.

That mission is still fundamental, is still clearly needed if the citizens of a democracy are going to be sufficiently well informed to govern themselves. And they won’t be able to afford Google or Proquest or Lexis and Nexis for themselves, so we still need a public agency to buy and liberate that information for all. If we abandon that job of making information free, we abandon the future of the public library.

My initial, knee-jerk reaction was to be alarmed at the growing number of reports of both academic and public libraries assigning duties once performed by credentialed librarians (MLS holders) to support staff. I would also cringe when I heard about reference and circulation desks being combined, materials selection being centralized or worse, outsourced to a vendor. I would cry out when a division of the American Library Association, which accredits LIS programs leading to that MLS, would initiate a certification program to certify folks who don’t have an MLS as public library administrators. I’m still deeply concerned, for even if these are rational changes in the nature our our profession, they should not be adopted without debate and discussion among all of us. The erosion of the power or our basic credential, or entry-level degree, and the replacement in jobs once held by those with that credential by Ph.Ds in other fields, paraprofessionals and support staff, or simply by vendors is not a local matter. It is a profession-wide concern, if we are to be able to call ourselves a “profession.”

While I no longer have that knee-jerk reaction, I still feel it is urgent for us to address these changes as a profession, and to ensure that our practice is carried on with the rigor and standards of quality that have endowed it with reservoirs of public support, and support by other experts and professionals in other fields and disciplines.

I asked a public library director what jobs he would fill only with candidates who held the MLS.  It wasn’t cataloging, or reference, or acquisitions he listed. Only childrens services and high level administration required a graduate librarian. A research library director recently told me he no longer hires “librarians,” preferring the subject expertise of those with advance degress in other disciplines, or the expertise of those educated in the technical or administrative skills and talents of other professions.

I will devote much of my work now to these concerns, and to the building of a healthy debate over the direction in which library administrators and governing boards seem to be taking our field. Are these changes simply cost-cutting, budgeting measures, or is there a substantive set of reasons to eliminate the reference desk, the crculation librarian, the credentialled library director? Are these changes eroding the core values of what we once called librarianship, or has a new value system come to us on the wings of a user friendly information and entertainment world where everyone and anyone can be his or her own librarian?

I hadn’t thought about Germaine Greer for a couple of decades until Willy (Wilda Williams, Fiction and Professional Media Editor at the LJ Book Review) sent me the link to her penetrating and beautifully written commentary from the Guardian Unlimited, the web presence of the British daily paper The Guardian. Called “Flashy libraries? I prefer to get my adventure out of the books not the building” it is vintage Greer, and shows she’s lost none of the bite of The Female Eunuch, the book that gave us part of our first true understanding of modern feminism. My favorite sentence in the Greer essay is: “Libraries are places where you can lose your innocence without losing your virginity.” But what Greer is really on about is comparing two new libraries, the Peckham library, her “flashy” choice, conceived by architect Will Alsop, and the equally fetching, but less flashy Johnston Central Library and Farnham center in Cavan, in the Republic of Eire, designed by the less well known Alice Bentley of Shaffrey Associates. “If a community library’s what you want, she’s your man,” says Greer. It is compelling commentary on library architecture that would pit the likes of what Rem Koolhaus conceived for Seattle against what a less celebrated local architect built, say, in Haines, Alaska. Click on the story, you’ll enjoy and be enlightened by Germain Greer on libraries.

NEWLIB-L should be required reading for library administrators, library school faculty and deans, and any librarian who has settled into that mid- and late-career comfort zone. It is the discussion list for librarians with brand new Master’s degrees in the library and information professions operated by Susan Scheiber, Assistant Director at the RAND Corporation (but she’s no Herman Kahn). Some posters and subscribers are employed and some are not. Recent threads, like those called “unemployed” and “toxic first jobs” and others, display a growing bitterness at the lack of employment opportunities for new graduates. There is also continuing disenchantment with ALA and library schools for promising career opportunities and massive retirements that never came from the ranks of employed professional librarians. There are even a few responses from employed librarians who seem to be tiring of the complaints from the young, but never hesitate to give out their free advice, and it is worth the price. There is good and bad advice in their posts, along with useful information and misleading misinformation. Some recent posts from the newbies charge that library schools are in it for enrollment and money and that the ALA is part of a larger conspiracy to falsely recruit young people into the field. Some of the employed say the disgruntled young are just the umemployable dregs of each graduating class.

The profession must attend to the current plight of its new members. We must realize that not only do they bring youth, energy, and new ideas to our field, but more important, they are the first wave of a revolutionary new information culture which will ultimately bring our libraries and information channels to a new position and place in our society. There are many places to get an early glimpse of that new place for librarianship, but NEWLIB-L is one that offers it with honesty, reality, and a good deal less cheerleading than some of the other sites.

Thanks to a January 7 comment from Cathy to my “Response to comments” in this Blog, I realized how trapped I am in the traditions of print. I have to recant. “We can come back and respond again until the conversation has run it’s course (or one of us gets tired of it),” Cathy pointed out. In a print magazine that isn’t true, so I avoid responding to comments, usually letters to the editor. On a blog the “conversation” continues. So, OK Cathy, I’ll respond, and hope that we can continue that conversation. It is one way to get at the truth, or at least the variety of opinions as to what that “truth” ought to be.

The ALA/APA (ALA’s memberless Allied Professional Association) showed weak signs of life at the ALA Midwinter Meeting in Seattle. Its Council passed a recommended minimum wage for entry-level librarians of $40K a year. Of course it is low, being at the current national average. Still, it is a beginning step. Many of us have advocated a recommended minimum salary for decades, believing it might help push library pay in the right directon.

I got lots of positive and negative feedback to my December Blatant Berry column in LJ on “Democracy in ALA.” It was predictable that most of the positive reaction came from frustrated, young librarians, many of whom can’t get jobs or afford to participate in ALA, while a lot of the negatives came from older library administrators who have been on, off, and on the ALA Council again over and over for too many terms and years. I thought the ALA Council’s  ”Hot Topic” discussion of why they can’t get more candidates to run for ALA Council was vintage Council with vintage facilitation by ALA prexy Leslie Burger, who directed the action in the classic way that has made her the library profession’s favorite facilitator. After forming groups to list the reasons more people won’t run for the Council, the Councillors suggested how they could change that. I was amused by the suggestion that ALA stop publishing the number of votes received by losers in Council elections so that potential candidates would not worry about being embarrassed when they lose. Oy!

I hope to interview the candidates for ALA president (James Rettig & Nancy Davenport) and treasurer (Jo Ann Pinder & Rod Hersberger) very soon. I had interesting interactions with some of them in Seattle, and it made me look forward to talking to them. At best, possibly 100 members showed up for the candidate’s forum at Midwinter. When you couple the fact that three out of four people asked by the nominating committee to run for Council turn them down, and it sometimes takes that many or more tries to get a slate for ALA president or treasurer, it just may be that few ALA members want to hold ALA office or even give a damn about who runs ALA or who is elected. Of course there is always the possibility that a different crowd from the elected officers actually run ALA.

In the LJ interviews we’ll try to highlight differences between the candidates that were not apparent at the Candidate’s Forum. Of course their experience is different, but differences on issues were hard to discern in the fog of campaign rhetoric there. I did discern that Hersberger is running on the grounds that he has accounting and financial experience, is a know number cruncher, while Pinder says the ALA budget is a policy document that can influence the association agenda.

I wouldn’t know which way to vote today, and maybe other members feel that way too. That is another reason some don’t care about ALA governance or elections: the results really don’t make too much difference.
