Dang, dang, dang.

Librarian uber-blogger Jessamyn West beat me to the punch by blogcasting a link to the current issue of Library Juice, which contains excerpts from an ongoing dialogue between several American Library Association head honchos about whether the ALA should sever ties with its current legal counsel, the law firm of Jenner and Block. Jenner and Block also represents the Recording Industry Association of America, which may pose conflicts of interest, since the ALA and the RIAA seem destined to clash over fair use, "digital rights management", and other intellectual-property issues.

Oh well. If you don't subscribe to Library Juice or read Ms. West's blog, you heard about it here.
