mlsSnobbery-- johnathanRochkind++ --- David Cloutman <[log in to unmask]> Electronic Services Librarian Marin County Free Library -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Jonathan Rochkind Sent: Tuesday, May 27, 2008 11:14 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] planet.code4lib.org -- 3 suggestions The Code4Lib community has from the start never ever been concerned about who has credentials as a librarian, and as far as most of us are concerned never will be. We are a community of people who write code and deal with technology for the library sector, we don't care about what degrees you have. As far as I'm concerned anyway.
