Library Board Members Gone Wild
Trustees stir controversy at Gurnee’s Warren-Newport library in attempt to obtain documents. (Daily Herald, 2/20/2014)
Two board members are eager to get their hands on certain personnel and financial documents, and, as far as they are concerned, policy be damned!
One of the board members has been a bad boy in the recent past. Last year, [board vice-president Ron] Friedman received a public scolding, or censure, by a majority of board members who claimed his conduct was unbecoming as an elected official. Friedman responded that the move was a “grown-up version of being bullied by a group of kids on the playground.”
Friedman, apparently, matriculated at the Randy Hopp School of Public Library Board Member Development.
