What was false? What was an assumption? Katherine Deibel | PhD Inclusion & Accessibility Librarian Syracuse University Libraries T 315.443.7178 [log in to unmask] 222 Waverly Ave., Syracuse, NY 13244 Syracuse University -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of S B Sent: Wednesday, July 3, 2019 9:22 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Note [administratativia] You are making an assumption and false statement. Only part one of the series has been printed. There are more parts coming. Instead of asking me questions or having a courtesy of emailing me privately, choose to take the public route of criticizing. I hope positive discussion will happen here on Sexual Harassment in Libraries.
