I thought that the most controversial and distressing
idea to be presented at last nights forum was when
Alan Hooker expressed much enthusiasm for the idea of
selling naming rights to various libraries and
subsections to raise funds.
Do we really need corporate and or brand names on our
public libraries?
I can envirion a children's book department brought to
you by Disney or McDonald's, or how about the Target
central library?
Xcel Energy Library doesn't sound much better.
What do others think?
