Library administrator corrupt?

   I have already suggested that Doug Pearce,director of the Warwick

    Public library, is incompetent  and foolish. After doing some homework

    yesterday on library E- mail, I will now suggest that he is CORRUPT

    and should not be trusted with library funds. Your paper should investigate

    this man IMMEDIATELY.

         Using the EBSCO article searcher on a library computer, I did a

    key word search using  ' libraries  AND e-mail '.  I was able to

    peruse more than 50 abstracts. The E- Mail " controversy " in libraries

    seems to be a non-issue, Mr. Pearce must be familiar with the " Library

    Journal. " No articles published in that professional periodical suggest

    that he represents even an enclave of opposition.

          He is hurting his own staff with his anti - E- mail stand. Under


    his  direction the " new " library to open in the spring can only be

    second rate.

        His few remarks justifying himself before the TAX PAYERS in retrospect

    seem almost   thuggish. The Mayor of Warwick -if he can- should consider

    removing Mr. Pearce - the sooner the better.
