Congratulations on your space hanger project. Looks interesting.

You are not supposed to see the man behind the curtain since you have him blocked, and because he is behind a curtain.

Had a visit to a local library this afternoon. This was Friday 6/09/2017. I hope some of the local librarians follow this thread. I may e-mail some of them about it. I used to e-mail librarians all over Florida from 1999 through 2005 or so before we moved to the Villages in 2005 from Palm Harbor, Florida. I had volunteered at two Palm Harbor public Libraries from 2000 through 2003. These were under the control of Gene Coppola. I had actually liked a few of the librarians at Tarpon Springs Library and Oldsmar Library quite a bit more than Gene Coppola. I volunteered about 10-14 hours per week at these two Palm Harbor public libraries among maybe 200 other volunteers and told them various stories about the Twin Cities, Reno, Scottsdale, San Francisco, etc.

People can do me a favor and check what is in your public library for survivors/victims of crimes? Put yourself in the shoes of a survivor/victim of crime and look for what you might need if you were in that situation. That's why I like actors/actresses so much and have been inter-acting with them since 1989 or so when my then live-in girlfriend Jennifer V. told me stories about her mother a theater actress. That got me going to the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis on a regular basis from 1989 through 1991 or so.

A little private joke to the Library Director I spoke to this afternoon. Is it a red book or a blue book?

This is such an asinine response that I just have to make sure there is a record of it.

I was talking about a private joke I had with a Library Director whom I talked to yesterday about red books and blue books. It comes from a person coming up to the Reference Desk and asking if you have a copy of that red or blue book that I loved so much when I was a kid and can you find it for me? OK. A red or blue book in a library. Kind of hard to locate anything on the color of the cover. Not that many black covered books however.

I did get a question like that while on a reference desk at Englewood Public Library in Colorado but it was a fellow library student getting her MA while playing a joke on me. Probably Nancy.

5658 views now of documents in my massive 224 613 Project attempting and often succeeding in getting practical materials for survivors/victims of crimes into or accessible through libraries of all kinds. What's in your community's libraries for those suffering with various mental illnesses as this is also a part of the mosaic of this huge problem and its solution?


I have been working on this since January of 1991 fro within the law librarianship profession starting at the University of Minnesota Law Library. Then from outside of the law librarianship profession after I started discussing in earnest my own experiences trying to help survivors/victims of crimes connected to the Michelle Mitchell 2-24-1976 murder investigation. She was the daughter of my then remedial English teacher Barbara Mitchell at Earl Wooster High School in Reno, Nevada. 2-24 is also my birthday and the Mitchell family gave me and the late John Picollo a small Memorial Scholarship in her name which I used to pay in part for my Freshmen year at the University of Nevada, Reno.

5675 views as of now 7:48 AM 6/11/2017. Part of my massive 224 613 Project. 613 is the number I had in a 17 week study on stress on the unemployed conducted by the University of California San Francisco Health Sciences Campus in late 1992-1993. I started using 613 along with 224 in my efforts to create an international dialog about the practical needs of survivors/victims of crimes by writing victim/witness assistance providers, nursing associations, lawyers, librarians, psychiatrists, physicians, social workers, news anchors, movie stars, writers, dancers, singers, comedians, CEOs, politicians, writers, victimologists and many many others. 224 is my birthday and the day when Michelle Mitchell was murdered in Reno, Nevada. She was the daughter of my then remedial English teacher Barbara Mitchell at Earl Wooster High School. Patty Sheehan - Wikipedia Patty Sheehan was Class of 1974, I believe while Greg LeMond was around Class of 1979 at Earl Wooster High School.

Another little twist on this. While at the U of MN Law Library I had worked under M. Kathleen Price the Law Library Director. She became Law Librarian of Congress around 1990 and was in that position until around 1996 or so. There was an CBS new report around July 6, 1996 that the Library of Congress was challenging whistleblowers and people who wanted to improve things on terms of their mental health rather than addressing their concerns. That is what happened to me at the U of MN Law Library in 1991. Rather than addressing the issue I had with respect to needs of survivors/victims of crimes to practical information the Law Library supervisor of mine probably acting on orders first subtly and then not so subtly put my mental health in question for wanting to talk to FUTURE law library employers about a glaring niche I had found in the delivery system of practical information for victims/survivors of crimes.

I am not saying I have any evidence that M. Kathleen Price was advising this law library supervisor of mine about putting my mental health in question. I was not privy to that information.

I did complain to the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1991 about this-- Senator Joe Biden. Who wrote back that they do not get involved with matters involving only one person. Many US State governors responded unlike this letter from Senator Joe Biden. As did some other US Senators, US Representatives, the Speaker of the House for the State of MN, and others.

So, I have never been much of a fan of that Cheshire Cat Joe Biden. If he had taken a stand in 1991 things would have been a lot different for survivors/victims of crimes in the 1990s as attitudes of law professors towards survivors/victims of crimes rub off on their law students who might become politicians, judges, CEOs, journalists, comedians, and many other professionals.

Things did seem to start changing especially after an interview I had at the Library at the University of Texas at El Paso in late 2001 where it seemed like someone was pulling strings to get me a good position in a law library again. I never learned who this person or group of people might be. UTEP did settle on someone who had been a practicing lawyer unlike me.

There is a connection to Barack Obama in all this that I had feared that Donald Trump would take advantage of in 2012 but he must not have seen the Justice e-mail I had sent back around 2000 which this student newspaper at Brandeis University had re-published in 2011 and that was up on-and-off until 2013 or so. My immediate supervisor at the U of MN Law School had gone onto the U of Chicago Law School Library. I had called her twice around 1992 or 1993 and she flat out told me that I had been blacklisted from law librarianship and that law librarians were a small group with very long memories. This law library employee probably had some contact with Barack Obama when he was a Law Professor to the U of Chicago but I doubt if the WESTLAW cataloger, Joe Biden and the other stuff ever came up in their probably extremely limited conversations. He was busy trying to launch his political career I would guess.

There is still an e-mail I had sent to Villanova back around 2002-2003 that is still up the last I looked. Again an e-mail to a Student Newspaper. I was e-mailing all of the Student Newspapers back in the 2000-2004 period along with just about every other media which had an e-mail address.

So Trump is right about some things with respect to the political establishment and how arm-in-arm some of them are with the media. There are exceptions though and Trump now seems to have become one of the swamp creatures and I see very little chance of change in the DC Beltway.

Libraries could play a critical role in making citizens less prone to being manipulated by either the media or by established politicians.

5742 views now as of 6/12/2017 9:24 AM. Had asked some friends to look at this thread. 613 was my number in a 17 week study on stress conducted by the University of California, San Francisco Health Sciences Campus in late 1992-1993. I had researcher/interviewer Myra Young. I showed her many of these documents dated up until then. Or sent them copies after I left the study in mid-March of 1993.

5765 views now 4:00 PM EST 6/12/2017 of items on this thread about a Project I started in January of 1991 to get practical materials into libraries for survivors/victims of crimes.

This is my 224 613 Project.

Had tried to get nursing associations all over the country interested in this as well as various Bar Associations, victim/witness assistance providers, physicians, psychiatrists, victimologists, Hollywood studio executives, writers, dancers, comedians, musicians, movie stars, and many many others. This was through snail mail through 1990s, e-mails in the 2000s, Findlaw from 2002-2006, personal connections, TOTV from 2007 forward, and other means of communication.

5777. That number might look pretty good in Reno and Las Vegas especially if it was 7777 rather than just 5777. I had been writing many news anchors back in the 1990s of various local CBS, NBC and ABC affiliates and I did get some answers.

Thanks. Hard to hold onto something like this for 41 years or so through all its changes.
