ACA COMMENTARY..<\/p>\n

Late Night TV is part of what’s best in America..there are jokes that are funny, mean and distasteful. The 5\/11\/10 Joke from the Leno show is linked here. It is part of a commentary on government spending and a misunderstanding of the Library’s value. <\/p>\n

We would like Jay Leno to make up for his poor taste and start advocating for libraries. I am sure he can give back more. <\/p>\n

It is our right to call him out!!..Our Letter to Jay.<\/p>\n

Jay your poor understanding of America’s libraries and their value needs to be corrected. You need to spend time visiting and understanding libraries. Jay we can provide a competitive environment for future generations – job seeking, skills building, learning and social networking. And Jay if you want make some fun of it too – we wont stop you!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
