  • It’s the same with those (Insert Theme Here): Pass it On billboards by the Foundation for a Better Life. They’re funded by Phil Anschutz, a billionaire who owns the AEG entertainment group and has funded groups like the Parents Television Council, the Federalist Society (which helped get all those GOP justices on the Supreme Court and federal courts), and other conservative groups. I gag having to pass those things on the freeway.











  • I doubt it. It’s not a blanket “buy everything” policy; we do have some standards we abide by like significance and value to the collection, the level of interest the community would have in something, how much it’s been covered beforehand by reviewers or the media in general, etc.

    Even if by some chance we actually did bring something like that into the collection, the policy allows for materials to be challenged by patrons. One probably wouldn’t be enough to get something removed, but I imagine something like that kind of manifesto wouldn’t stop at just one challenge.
