  • The Case Against Library Fines—According to the Head of the New York Public Library
    NEW CHAPTER The case against library fines—according to the head of The New York Public Library Written by Anthony W. Marx December 18, 2017 There’s no doubt that we are currently living in a fractured world, one in which the divide between rich and poor is widening, opportunities for the disenfranchised are declining, and the lines between fact and fiction are increasingly blurred. Public libraries are on the front lines every day, combatting these threats to our democracy. Whether loaning wi-fi hotspots to give patrons access to the internet and help close the digital divide, helping immigrants learn English, offering free citizenship classes, providing early literacy programs to close the reading gap, or simply loaning books (and, yes, people still read books—circulation at The New York Public Library went up 7% last year over the previous year), libraries ensure that no one—regardless of beliefs or background—faces barriers to learning, growing, and strengthening our communities. It is because of this role, so crucial to our democracy of informed citizens, that I and many others at libraries across the country have been seriously evaluating the complex and long-standing issue of library fines – and whether to do away with them. For many families across the US, library fines are a true barrier to access. While relatively small library fines have been a punchline in pop culture over the years (Jerry Seinfeld’s “library cop” is an icon, for example), the fact is that for many families across the US, library fines are a true barrier to access.

He'arat Shulayim ,שוליים David B. Levy Description: This paper focuses on the image of the librarian, and the subcategory of the Jewish librarian in film, literature, and television. Of the many examples of the Jewish librarian in film and TV, we consider David Mamet's work, Homicide, the Israeli film The Matchmaker, the ,(translit. He'arat Shulayim ,הערת שוליים film Sophie's Choice, and the Israeli film, The Footnote among many other test cases. We put the images of Jewish librarians in the context of the many images of librarians and libraries from the wider world from Marian the librarian in The Music Man to Citizen Cane. As examples of favorable portraits of librarians we consider classic works such as Umberto Eco's semiotic novel, The Name of the Rose (Il nome della rosa), Louis Borges' labyrinth library thesis in "The Library of Babel" (La biblioteca de Babel), and other examples of high intellectual culture that depart from popular culture flat stereotypes, by portraying the librarian in a positive light and valuing the knowledge that libraries contribute. By the method of Derridian Deconstruction (Mal d'Archive: Une Impression Freudienne) we will show why the popular flat simplistic stereotypes in pop low culture from the Saturn commercial to Seinfeld, are often false, and through the work of Michel Foucualt (“La Bibliotheque.

  • New Car Buying Coach
    Anytime Adviser—New Car Buying Coach Welcome. This interactive guide offers you strategies for getting the best deal on a new car. Let's begin. Interested in a little guidance to negotiate your best deal on a new car? Spend 10 minutes here. Introduction It’s late October. The sticker price of the current model year car you want is $20,500. You have learned that the invoice price to the dealer on this car is $18,500. What’s the lowest price the dealer can sell you this car and still make a profit? $18,501? No. Although most dealers wouldn’t typically go this low, they’d still make quite a profit at this price. Manufacturers typically pay back two to three percent of the invoice price to dealers at the end of the quarter—as much as $555 extra profit on this car. $17,950? Maybe. This price is just more than the invoice price, minus a three percent manufacturer hold back—this would seem to be as low as the dealer can go, and much of the time it is. However, if the new model year is arriving, or if this model just isn’t selling, the manufacturer may be offering additional incentives to dealers. $17,000? While really just a guess, yes. This seems to be about as low as a dealer could go—accounting for a three percent manufacturer hold back and additional model year-end incentives from the manufacturer. This good a deal, though, would be reserved for a car that’s been around a while, perhaps one loaded with options.
