We stand behind the fact that our community is made up of a very diverse group of individuals, and we as a library cater to the diversity of our community,” he said.
That very Diverse community just voted to defund your ass. So perhaps it’s time for some self reflection on who the real problem is.
As a library director, sure you have a diverse population but whats the majority? Sure, I buy diverse stuff to cater to the 5% of my community, but it goes on a shelf, is not highlighted and if challenged have a policy in place to protect the library. We are a based system and I'm certain I'm doing what the community wants. When you focus on the end user, you shouldn't have to worry about things like that. Sad.

Stop grooming children. Coming after the schools next.
Then it should serve the community by reflecting the values of the community.
“The people who need the library the most can’t vote because they are children.”
