Adam Gaffin pro librarians quote! for your speeches!

[Elisabeth Roche]

Adam Gaffin-*the internet guru* speaks out for librarians!!!

I requested permission to forward this paragraph which concluded a message
sent to a "budding" journalist on the Carr-l list. He even sent another plug
in his permission to send his first quote on!

Thanks Adam--

would be fine!
