Book weeding, changes stir debate at Central Library; BuffaloNews.com, 1/21/11

Mark Sommer, BuffaloNews.com; Book weeding, changes stir debate at Central Library:

"Other librarian concerns, Galvin said, include:

• Librarians are being moved out of their area of expertise without consultation.

• Librarians fear being driven into “irrelevance” to save costs.

• Centralizing collection development responsibilities will diminish a primary librarian responsibility.

• Librarians have not been consulted on management changes. They say consultation, though not contractually required, could improve morale."
