[LM_NET] RE Librarians Obsolete and Principals

[Mark Williams <markwilliams@MAKAW.NET>]

Bravo, Jean Gustafson!  Excellent point.  Yes, principals have a lot 
on their plate, but they are also in an almost unique position to 
motivate teachers.  Work hard to get them on your side.... and 
always, always keep them  informed of what you do.  Invite them to 
everything.  Send/present/take them frequent reports of library 
programs and events.  Be sure to give them credit for any positive 
things they do for the library; and make sure parents, teachers, 
students, and District administration hear it, too.
