Everything I've read indicates that the folks in Atlanta are probably cracking open the bubbly...

...and rightly so.

LISNews.com | Atlanta PL Director Mary Kaye Hooker Fired

Although it's sad when it takes an act of the legislature to enable such a divisive director to be fired. You can check out the AFPL Watch site for details on how the people under her felt. It's also sad that AFPL's system problems go way beyond the upper management; Mary Kaye Hooker was just one in a line, and the unwieldy board, politics as usual, and idiosyncratic division of authority all contributed to the implosion of the institution. Here's hoping there can be some healing now.
