Subject: [Mpls] From Candidates Library Board Forum-- Selling Naming
RIghts to Our Public LIbraries and/or Departments?
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? <snip>
What do others think?
