Meet the Socialist Librarian Running for President of the American Library Association
Libraries are widely beloved in America, but they’ve been decimated by austerity in recent years. Emily Drabinski is a socialist librarian who is running for head of the American Library Association to change that.
Why do they all have those stupid fucking glasses now. At least from now on we can say big glasses = pedo.
They all look the same. And I am not kidding.
The Clark Kent thing started awhile ago with the libs.
It's a pretty ugly fucking look
My book collection includes over 3000 titles. You can't find 90% of these books in any library in the country. And for roughly 5%, there are perhaps one or two copies in random libraries around the country - typically at universities.
Virtually all books pointing to truth in one fashion or another on a wide variety of subjects are systemically barred or removed from the shelves of our "public" libraries. That should tell you something...
This is what I mean by them being gatekeepers. Libraries don't even try to cover different viewpoints. Collection Development used to attempt some balance. Just remember that for each book that we object to they have decided NOT to purchase material that would balance it, they only have so many of our dollars to spend. But it goes further than what you will or won't see on the shelves. The same people are in charge of the very classification schemes that label the materials. This way they can just eliminate whole swathes of information as irrelevant and you aren't able to get to it.
100% agreed. I'll see your "nefarious library administrators" and raise you this -> The prime directive of ALL of our mainstream institutions is to hide truth and promote falsehoods. It's their primary function. Doh!
It's a fun little rabbit holw journey to look into the people who are most prominent in the "rare/antique book" marketplace should you ever get curious. Their job is to purchase and shelve the many books from both our distant and recent past (pre 1900) that don't support the dominant narrative. They've got it all locked up, as with all our other large institutions.
I've come to the conclusion that any book written after 1930 is quite likely worthless. Sure, there are always exceptions, but this is my general rule of thumb. On top of that, the authors prior to this period were exponentially better and clearer writers IMHO.
Things that make you go hmmmmm?
Agreed. Think on this. All those months that OUR public libraries were closed to the public did you notice that all the library staff was still employed? Gee, wonder what they were doing all of that time? Perhaps weeding the collections of all undesirable literature??? At our public library, when it re-opened is when staff started retiring and quitting. Seems they didn't want to wait on patrons anymore.
No doubt they snuffed out some significant titles in that window of time.
Undoubtably.
Libtards have that libtard look
Emyryde, ThanQ for posting. I’d love to share this article with a MAGA friend who works in a library, but I am worried she might throw-up about reading an article from this far-left rag! 🤣
On a serious note—In order to gauge how these commies think, I feel it’s imperative that we read this leftist vomit. So, again, ThanQ for posting.
Ps—I wonder if the journalist will be covering satancon as her bio states that she lives in Boston. I may have to read.
I feel for your friend. I gave up on library work decades ago. While I loved the actual work I felt like a fish out of water among all my co-workers.
You are welcome. I hesitated a minute before posting not being sure everyone would see the implications.
Sorry about your library career! Your work is greatly appreciated AND needed here though!!!
I am grateful for your post as I will continue to read this Marxist rag to learn more about their sick agenda. (Noam Chomsky is even quoted in the About section!)
Thank you so much!! My brain functions in categorizing all types of information and I've always been passionate about bringing people and information together to create knowledge. I have managed over the years since to apply my strengths to all kinds of settings that the typical librarian would never consider. I'm still poking around for a way to make use of my talents in the political arena as Conservatives need all kinds of help...... they just don't know they need mine ....... yet.
Something about Pat u/#Clownworld
I thought she was a man!
People forget it's not just the schools, Libraries are just as much a part of the battle for culture. Librarians are gatekeepers of what information the public has access to. The Library Associations went Left decades ago. It's no longer providing people access it's engineering culture. This article is horrific.
Fact — one must show proof of COVID vaccinations for ANY job in ANY library (or museum) right now. Sick and demonic. No wonder they promote drag queen story hour to children.
i'd argue the internet replaced the library.
I stopped going to the library when i found i could get just about everything online.
Yes and no.
