EPA : The Fight Continues
From SLA's CEO Janice Lachance's blog:
After months of wrangling with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency over plans to slash services at its network of regional specialty libraries, the matter was front and center February 6 when the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee took up the matter with EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson at a public hearing.In a letter to the committee chair, U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer, D-CA, the day before the committee hearing, I shared with her YOUR concern that the closure of EPA libraries and a dramatic reduction in services could have devastating long-term impacts on public health and safety.
