Please Come & Invite Your Friends to Special BOARD MEETING.

Background article on Berkeleyside.
YOUR presence this coming WEDS Aug 26 at 5:30 pm is
ESSENTIAL. Please plan to come and CONTACT your friends, family, neighbors to come, too!
The Board will hear public comment before discussing the performance of the library director (in closed session).

Our freedom of, and access to, information, cultural heritage and history continue to be at stake as members of the Board of Library Trustees
continue to support the director’s actions. Hard to believe, but true. They see our facts as “wild claims” and “misinformation.” They see 2
managers with a budget to buy books from one jobber (along with 4 librarians with a small “allowance”) as just as good as 34 people being
able to thoughtfully buy books from independent publishers. The Vice-Chair feels all those books needed to be tossed!

The Board continues to support its director–despite clear evidence of waste, fraud, and abuse. Change WILL come only if LARGE numbers of us show up to the meeting and speak our minds. See you on Weds at 5:30pm on the steps of Central Library (Kittredge and Shattuck).
MANY, Many THANKS!!!
