[LM_NET] GEN: Marion Jones

[Diane Averett <daverett@KERRVANCE.COM>]

Hello,

 

As I drove to school this morning and listened to the news reports about
Marion Jones admitting her guilt in using performance enhancing drugs, I
began wondering about my collection's books about her.  We feature her in
our state collection of books since she attended college here in NC.  

 

In situations like these do we simply leave the biography on the shelf?  Do
we remove since much of what's in the book probably no longer is valid?  Is
this like removing any books about Pluto as a planet?  : )

 

This will probably not be the most pressing issue of my day but I'm curious
what others think.
