Back in the stone age around 1965, “library science” was a course college varsity football players took to get enough credits to graduate ...

Phipps Soerio is the librarian at affluent Cambridgeport school, Cambridge, Mass...she rejected Melania's gift of Dr Seuss books as "racist." This liberal sicko is apparently obsessed w/ virtue-signaling.....brainwashing the young privileged kids at Cambridgeport School that they're no patsy for conservatives.
============================================
FREEPER ACTION NEEDED:
Cambridgeport Elementary School
89 Elm St
Cambridge, MA 02139
PHONE (617) 349-6587
TALKING POINTS--"You may not be aware of this," wrote librarian Soeiro as she rejected Melania Trump's gifts, "but Dr Seuss is a bit of a cliché, a tired and worn ambassador for children's literature. She also claimed that the illustrations are examples of “racist propaganda.”
Quick, somebody tell Michelle and Barack Obama...... who are frequently pictured reading Seuss books to kids.
Soerio will no doubt "bend a knee in obeisance" to the Obamas.

Mao was a librarian. So was Laura Bush. Both leftists.

Most, but not all. Cribbed a little from a humor bit re: “Lesser Known Dr. Seuss Books” and adapted for the Commie Hypocrite Librarian.

Orange lipstick and braids is her “librarian” look? Something is seriously wrong with her.
Do we know if it’s married to a XX or XY?

Yes we do have to have an MLS, or MLIS, or whatever they call it now. I graduated back in the 80s when it meant more.
Obviously this particular person in question gives the rest of us a black eye.

Pictured with Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden who stated of ALL authors, “All of these icons were people, too! And you can be someone.” That’s the message she wants children to receive... Another part of Hayden’s plan is educating legislators about the Surplus Books Program. Legislators may select from among the extra copies of documents and books at the Library of Congress and give them to libraries in their home districts... The Librarian of Congress may not speak about politics "http://www.hbook.com/2017/04/blogs/out-of-the-box/libraries-are-not-surplus/

Has anyone done what I did and substituted "Blacks" for "Green Eggs and Ham" in the Dr. Seuss Book "Green Eggs and Ham?"
"Green Eggs and Ham" is code for "Blacks" you know .... It's totally racist .......

Wonder why she’s still called a librarian. Schools have called them media specialists for decades, since the 70s. And schools don’t have libraries anymore either, they have media centers. Lastly, it hasnt been called library science since the 70s either. Its IP, Information Professional, in grad schools. Small diversion, now back to your regular programming....

I wish people would not knock the discipline of Library Science over the actions of one idiot librarian. The professor I had for my software engineering and information science classes (for my M.I.T. degree, Virginia Tech) had an MLS degree (as well as a Ph.D. in Comp Sci).
