That's OK. I probably do not either. Nobody tells me much of anything. I just have been fighting to get better more practical materials into libraries of all kinds all over the world since 1992 or so. I have written 100,000s of e-mails and snail mail messages since 1991 or so but have no idea if any of these have even been read. I did get nominated to 24 Marquis Who's Who publications --including several editions of Marquis
Who's Who in the World-- since 1992 or so but who actually reads those except maybe for other people also listed in them like some of the people who win Gold, Silver and Bronze at various Olympics?
I have a JD from the University of Minnesota from the Class of 1989, a MA in Librarianship from the University of Denver Graduate School of Librarianship and Information Management Class of 1984, a BA in History from the University of Nevada, Reno from the Class of 1981, and a BA in Philosophy from the University of Nevada, Reno Class of 1980. These 4 degrees do give me a little bit if credibility as well as a little bit of knowledge about whom I should contact. Which I have used since 1991 after being basically kicked out of law librarianship for crossing a very powerful clique who had some connections to some top US institutions. I wanted to talk about a glaring niche in practical materials accessible for victims of crimes in many law libraries and other types of libraries in the US which I had discovered after the 2-24 murder of my high school English teacher Mrs. Barbara Mitchell's daughter Michelle Mitchell. This was while I was at Earl Wooster High School in Reno, Nevada while I was in her remedial English class in 1976. Of course, I did not notice this chasm overnight but found it while earning those 4 degrees. I was 17 in 1976 and was born in Wisconsin on February 24, 1959.
Gary Corsair, the reporter from the
Villages Daily Sun had done an article about my own local efforts to get the Florida Victim Services Directory connected to the Sumter, Lake and Marion County public library websites. This was back in May of 2007. The last I looked none of these libraries had these connections. The Lake County Library System did have one for a little while but also the last I looked has some kind of social service search engine that would get you there eventually. Kind of like driving to Miami to get to Orlando from the Villages.
Incidentally, FunTrivia is back up finally. It has some good Quizzes on preventing domestic violence and the like.
