Yow. New to me.
What do you think?
Kathy Lawrence@brewsterkahle @brewsterkahle. Worrisome. This model seems to consolidate the higher paying admin jobs AND all of the “decision making” into the private sector. I wonder if any of their “success stories” include libraries that retained a union workforce? It would also be interesting to know how book challenges have been resolved in this model. Just two of the many concerns I have. Thanks for the heads up.
