No, but don't you think this rather highlights the idiocy behind the
idea that anyone can run a library? And doesn't it infuriate you that
professionals who are under threat are being asked to act as consultants
for those that will replace them? I know it infuriates me.
Helen has my every sympathy for being put in this position (sorry Helen
if you thought I was being unfair). But let's not pretend that this
isn't a disgraceful situation. Of course, we can continue to bury our
heads in the sand...seems to have worked so far hasn't it?
