Questions to candidates

For the record, I think the questions you are asking are too wishy-washy and too wordy. I doubt that political candidates are too concerned about capturing the teacher-librarian vote. In fact, education issues have been kept relatively low-key in this campaign as if they hardly matter much at all. However, I think you would have more impact with prospective pollies if you supply them with a short statement about the importance of information literacy in the information age and an assurance that teacher-librarians have many concerns, which have been pretty much ignored by short-sighted politicians and bureacrats, to date. Then I would ask each to promise to give our concerns a genuine hearing if and when they are elected.

Very best wishes
