Libraries making Headlines

Libraries have been in the news the last couple of days.

A direct marketing firm in Britain has come up with a way to place ads in the front pages of library books. I'm actually surprised a US firm didn't think of this first, not because I'm nationalistic, I just think we are that greedy. How long till we see something similar here in the US?

Chile returns 3,778 books to Peru's national library after 126 years. Now that is a long time to wait. Think about the fines!

And the Reagan Library is missing 80,000 artifacts.
