sexually explicit

April 4th, 2002

“… we wondered if the very nature of our profession denied us the civil rights afforded to all other Americans in the workplace. Did our status as librarians deprive us of protection from sexually explicit images as we worked day by day in our jobs? We decided not. ” Newbreedlibrarian hosts Wendy Adamson as she describes her experiences working in a library that was turned into sex central by the Internet. Ours is a complicated profession.

Also at Newbreed, an interview with Michele McGinnis, personal librarian to Kevin Kelly, co-founding editor of Wired Magazine, and an article by Linda Harris Mehr, director of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Library.

Congratulations to the headlemur and his lovely wife on fifteen years of marriage. Also in the zone, a new p i x e l v i e w with Tom Matrullo.

Lee County Librarians have a list of Sleepers, some good books you may have missed. Thanks M.E.!

I’ll pick up my first set of Holga prints tomorrow evening. In the meantime, enjoy these toy camera sites: 2000 Krappy Kamera II award winners, John M. Blodgett’s various and sundry photos, and Robert Vizzini’s 1995 trip to Cuba.
