A pathfinder on Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) - man, I hope I spelled that right - has been created through the joint efforts of several librarians in Alberta. Heavy on CanCon (Canadian content), but also has pertinent U.S. and international links.
Are libraries an urban service? The authors of this opinion piece say no, and I heartily agree. To me, the underlying purpose of public libraries is access for all, including those in rural areas. Therefore, libraries can hardly be a service reserved strictly for urban residents.
