Congress bans kids from libraries?:
New safety law may prohibit children under 12 from libraries – or make many books illegal
Would Lead Ban Threaten Kids’ Access to Libraries? Probably Not.
Last week librarians were panicking over their books and the regulation of lead in items meant for children 12 and younger that is set to go into effect next month. Publishers are scrambling to get their products tested. Consignment shops were also up in arms, I saw in our local paper, although they apparently got a reprieve.
This sounds like one more law that is well-meant but will be a logistics nightmare, and very expensive in a crunched financial climate.
