Surprising and not-to-mention disturbing article about the lack of librarians in the Chicago Public School system: 'CTU Pushes for Libraries, Librarians in Every CPS School'. We get the count in the subtitle: '... just 107 librarians for more than 500 schools'.
Lemme do some math: So we're talking about almost four fifths of Chicago's public schools without access to research help? Disturbing!
Looking over this week's literary purchases (from Salvation Army) while chomping down on lunch at Taco Bell. Life is beautiful -- at least on Friday afternoons ...😀 !!!
The papers were lists of endorsements, etc. from various sources which I was able to find online.
Passed by while walking home from downtown. Thank you, thank you to the cleaners! Abe is a friend of our's!
P.S. Of course we all know it's called 'UIC' (for the past 30 yrs or more)...
P.P.S. It was during classes when I was there today so not too many people out in the Quad...
