Hi All,
If this is duplicated, please delete, just wanted to get the word out.
Just read a great article in Dick Eastman's weekly newsletter. If you are
not currently subbed, you can join at
www.eogn.com It is the best 60 cents a
week I spend.
Apparently good old Detroit has come up with another way to screw the
visitors to the city. Anyone that does not live in the city can no longer
borrow anything from the Detroit Library and or use any of the special
collections including the phenomenal Burton Historical Collection located at
the main branch. The only way you can access it is to purchase a card for
$100 a year. I think I will contact them and demand back all the things I
have donated to the collection over the years :(( I also know now that I
will never donate to them again, will change that to the State Library.
This is now just another slap in the face to tell people you are not welcome
in the city of Detroit, we do not want you and we do not want you to visit
our collections, unless you bring a LARGE wallet :(((
