How did everyone enjoy the film "The Hollywood Librarian: A Look At Librarians Through Film"?  I think overall there was a pretty good turn out.  I enjoyed it...even though it made me cry in parts (good grief!) Perhaps my blood sugar was low but the thought of all the history and knowledge in the National Library of Iraq destroyed so easily and quickly choked me up.  What a disgrace! What a loss!  And the situation with the Salinas library was very disturbing too.  Am I living in a bubble?  Do things like that happen in Canada?  I wasn't aware of the conditions that public libraries operate under.  Or is it U.S. public libraries??  I have to hand it to those librarians though.  I doubt I would stick with a job where I had to have business meetings in my car and use the public washroom in the park next door. YIKES!
