Toronto's Buffoonish Ford Brothers are No Friends to Libraries

Toronto Public Library initiates date-due slip advertising.  (Quill & Quire, 3/11/2013)

The library is conducting a 6-month experiment to print advertisement on the backs of date-due slips, which will bring in an estimated $20,000 in revenue.

Admittedly, a drop in the bucket to make up a $3,900,000 budget shortfall.

Something about Toronto Mayor Rob Ford.


Still in office.
