[Libs-Or] Fwd: [alacro-l] FW: Why Silicon Valley cares so much about who will lead the Library of Congress

[Meredith Farkas]

Thanks for sharing this, Suzanne! I was asked to write an article on the
next Librarian of Congress and what she or he should/could do next for the
New Republic. Super happy at least one non-library magazine actually asked
a librarian.
